HBIC has its own extensive database of habitat and higher plant data for the County. In addition, HBIC hold copies of datasets belonging to partner organisations. Through data exchange agreements with these organisations HBIC is provided with regular database updates and can supply species information on their behalf. HBIC currently holds copies of the following datasets:

  • Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland’s (BSBI) vascular plant database for Hampshire
  • British Bryological Society (Mosses, Liverworts, Hornworts)
  • Butterfly Conservation’s butterfly and moth database for Hampshire
  • Hampshire Ornithological Society (HOS) bird records
  • Hampshire Bat Group (HBG) Records of bat roost visits and sightings
  • Data administered by the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust on behalf of the species recording groups below:
  • Hampshire Amphibian and Reptile Group (HARG)
  • Hampshire Mammal Group (HMG) (excluding records for bats and badgers)
  • UK Bees, Wasps and Ants Recording Society (BWARS) the full dataset as of March 2014

It is important that these species recording groups (where relevant to the data provided) are acknowledged in any document produced by the data requester where data is incorporated into the document, as a matter of course.

The following are Invasive species records from the above datasets within the search area recorded in the last 15 years. For plants this has been extended to 20 years:

Further notes

  • The location names, where shown, are the originals given by the recorders and may not match any formal name for the location or other colloquial names by which the location may also be known.
  • The grid references, where shown, are the originals given by the recorders and may indicate the specific location of the species, a central grid reference representing a larger survey area, or a grid square.
  • Many of the records have been supplied by specialist species recording groups. Whilst every reasonable effort is made to validate information supplied to the Hampshire Biodiversity Information Centre the accuracy or comprehensiveness of this information cannot be guaranteed.
  • Records do not necessarily represent evidence of breeding at a site; please contact HBIC if further details are required for any of these records.
  • Whilst a species may have been recorded at a site, this does not indicate that the species is still present. Equally, the absence of a species from a site does not signify that it is absent, only that it has not been recorded, that the site has not been surveyed for this species, or that HBIC has not been informed of its presence.
  • Quantitiesof ‘0’ (zero) indicate that the species was ‘present’ but the number of individuals seen was not recorded. Negative quantities correspond to the DAFOR scale (plus very rare and ‘locally’ criteria) as follows:
  • -1 = Dominant (DAFOR)
  • -2 = Abundant (DAFOR)
  • -3 = Frequent (DAFOR)
  • -4 = Occasional (DAFOR)
  • -5 = Rare (DAFOR)
  • -6 = Very Rare
  • -21 = Locally Dominant
  • -22 = Locally Abundant
  • -23 = Locally Frequent
  • Negative quantities of ‘-7’ (minus seven) indicates that the species was ‘not found’. These records are not included in protected and notable species lists.
