GlobalTreeSearch is not a static database and evolves as new information comes to light. If you spot a mistake (in taxonomy, distribution or lifeform) or have data which you think could improve the database, please get in touch withglobaltreesearch@bgci.org.
Downloads are available for a genus or a specific epithet showing all the trees and their native distributions. A country checklist of native tree species is available following a country search.
You can download a CSV file of all tree taxa in the GlobalTreeSearch database:
