Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 94 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Geographic Coverage
The occurrences of alien and invasive species in Colombia came mainly from 12 departments and the area of the special district of Bogotá.
| Bounding Coordinates | South West [-4.916, -79.805], North East [13.753, -66.973] |
|---|
Taxonomic Coverage
All the registries are identified to the lowest possible taxon that is species, however, the fishes of the Cichlidae family that came from Africa were identified until genus.
| Kingdom | Plantae, Animalia |
|---|---|
| Class | Magnoliopsida, Actinopterygii |
| Order | Pulmonata, Anura |
Temporal Coverage
| Start Date / End Date | 2003-06-28 / 2019-10-21 |

Project Data
Developed a platform for the registry and divulgation of the presence and condition of alien, transplanted, and invasive species of flora and fauna.
| Title | InvBasa Platform for the registry of alien and invasive species in Colombia. |
|---|---|
| Funding | JRS Biodiversity Fundation, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Fundación Humedales |
| Study Area Description | Colombia |
| Design Description | The project is based in the citizen sciences where the users send the registry of they think is an alien species via the app and the InvBasa team corroborates the registry and assigns the taxonomic category and publish in the web platform. |
The personnel involved in the project:
Sampling Methods
Each citizen scientist creates a user account on their mobile phone and contribute to the data of species distribution that they encounter in the field. The GPS smartphone print in the photo the location of the registry to decide each occurrence location and the next step is to send the photo to the InvBasa project the registry.
| Study Extent | Colombia |
|---|---|
| Quality Control | The control quality is based in two stages, the first is the geographical control where we check the valid coordinates of the registry and the second is check or assign the taxonomic identity |
Method step description:
- When the server receives each registry of occurrence, the first step is the revision of the taxonomic classification by the InvBasa team. The team also checks that the geographical information lies within the countries boundaries and when the occurrence is approved, it is published on the website, so it becomes available to the general public.
