        Tree Conservation Information Service

        Funded by the Government of the Netherlands, Ministry of Foreign Affairs/NEDA

        The World Conservation Monitoring Centre holds data on over 7000 tree species of global conservation concern in the Tree Conservation Database. Conservation assessments, including IUCN red list category and supporting information, have been gathered using many sources: literature, journals, floras and most importantly contributions from over 300 botanists. The database is being continually updated.
