The scheme is one of a number developed by Biodiversity Information Standards particularly aimed at taxonomic databases. [2] The starting point was the "need for an agreed system of geographical units at approximately 'country' level and upwards for use in recording plant distributions". [1]
The following categorization scheme is the result of a project to have our flora geographic categories follow the World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions: Brummitt, R. K. (2001). World Geographical Scheme for Recording Plant Distributions: Edition 2 (PDF). Biodiversity Information Standards—TDWG.

The book does not describe the individual Endemic Bird Areas in detail; a subsequent more detailed publication, Endemic Bird Areas of the World: Priorities for Biodiversity Conservation does so, however. The book is 90 pages long. It has a foreword by Edward O. Wilson.
According to a study, there are over 50 plants that are dependent on bee pollination, many of these being key staples to feeding the world. [12] Another study conducted states that a lack of plant diversity will lead to a decline in the bee population fitness, and a low bee colony fitness has impacts on the fitness of plant ecosystem diversity ...
An electronic Flora is an online resource which provides descriptions of the associated plants, often also providing identification keys, or partial identification keys, to the plants described. Some Floras point to the literature associated with the plants of the region (flora Malesiana), others seek to show the plants of a region using images ...
