For each of the more than 5000 mammal species, the add-on puts in
listing software the English common name, the scientific name, the
English common and scientific names of its family and order, and a very
detailed specification of the range. It was prepared from authoritative
sources by Dr. Andrew Duff and Ms. Ann Lawson in a multi-year project
which also led to their favorably reviewed book Mammals of the World
(2004: London: A. & C. Black). the Mammal Data Add-On is updated
from time to time by Duff and Lawson.
Our listing software, BirdBase and BirdArea, has been widely used with
birds for years. With the add-on, it records a sighting of any mammal at
any place for any date and includes a lengthy sighting note, if desired.
The records automatically update the user's annual and life lists for all
locations (county, state/province, region defined by name or by latitude
and longitude, nation, world). These lists can give complete information
for every sighting, or for only each mammal's first sighting, or just name
the mammals seen. Furthermore, the software can list in detail the range
of every mammal and can produce lists of the mammals of all major world
areas (all US states, Canadian provinces, and nations, plus most major
islands or island groups). Mammals endemic to an area are labeled on
the area's check list. And each mammal is labeled to show if the user
has seen it within the area, outside the area, or both.

software, visit our web site.
