Resources for download:
The table below lists a number of identification keys and checklists which cover species found within the Wildlife Trust area. The ‘learning about plants’ factsheet has been produced to help those living within the Wildlife Trust area with an interest in vascular plants to learn more by attending courses, joining societies & groups and attending field meetings. The ‘literature list’ is an extensive bibliography covering subjects including conservation, ecology and species identification and status
We are happy for these resources to be:
