Wildlife Inventory

Fauna inventory of the department of Hauts-de-Seine

This dataset lists all the animal species inventoried in most of the Hauts-de-Seine territory. It is a true atlas of departmental fauna aggregating information on very diverse taxonomic groups.
This wildlife inventory is aimed at both the general public and experts and improves knowledge of species at the departmental level. In fact, it can become a decision-making tool, particularly in the management and preservation of environments.

Special comments

The data in this faunal inventory use taxonomic repositories for the flora and fauna of metropolitan France: "TAXREF" published by the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle.
The realization of this inventory would not have been possible without the active participation of the partners of the Departmental Council, in particular the local or national naturalist associations.
