Bees are useful insects pollinating flowers and collecting nectar and pollen for their larvae. Honeybee is one of the most well known species in this group. More than 16,000 species are known in the world. Bees in tropical Asia have been not well investigated. A tropical bee reference database TABR is based on main references related to tropical bees and treats a taxon (e.g., scientific name of one species, one genus, or one family) as one record. Each record is composed of 11 items, such as taxonomical (family, genus, species, synonymy), distributional data and reference,
The TABR is managed by a text database management system SIGMA.
TABR is supported by a Grant-in-Aid for Publication of Scientific Research Result and a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (A) from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Sciences (JSPS) (Both head investigators: O. Tadauchi). The use of data in this database is free of charge if the objective is academic study or educational purposes.
This database is now constructing and new records and references will be added.
Data and Tags are the Following 11 items.
| 1. | (FTAX) | family (scientific name, including subfamily name) |
