Rare and endangered species (LR-CH)

The objective of this project is to update red lists of truly or potentially endangered species. It represents a central objective for the ministry of environement (SAEFL). One of the tasks of CSCF and KARCH is to support the SAEFL in realising new redlists for few sepcies groups.

Biodiversity Monitoring (BDM-CH)

In collbaoration with the Biodiversity Monitoring project (BDM-CH), CSCF is responsible to proove every year the presence of species from several groups (odonata, de rhopalocera et d'orthoptera) in each of the biogeographical regions (Jura, Plateau, Northern side of Alps, Valais, Grisons, Tessin)

Z3-Z4:

Considering ongoing projects (biodiversity monitoring (Z7/Z9), national Red Lists), it is sometimes difficult to prove the presence of some species of these three groups by biogeographical regions.

Some additional means will be provided to gather data on particularly difficult species but it seems already that they will not cover all the needs.

The data provided below summarizes our state of knowledge for these three groups in the 6 main biogeographical regions. If you have some original data concernning one of these species, please don't hesitate to send ut to us !!!

Check the lists of data we are looking for by clicking on a group and then a region !

Spatial Analyses in Conservation and Ecology

A general strategy of data management and analyses is under development with our main partners and in function of or mid-terms and long-terms objectives. The aim is to improve our efficiency to use and share our data, knowledge, tools and human resssources involved in the spatial analysis of fauna distribution. This approach should feed regularly with quality data a number of applications such as: atlas, Internet servers, red lists, hotspot of biodiversity, ecological networks and natural reserves.

The CSCF data analysis strategy named SP@CE (Spatial Prediction Analyses in Conservation and Ecology) feeds itself in a national and international research arena. This page represents indeed a participant node in the SP@CE-CH and SP@CE-WORLD network.
