Stanford University Libraries' Branner Earth Sciences Library and Map Collections has made available this incredible resource of online vegetation and plant distribution maps. Under each classified area (world, continent, or region), users will find hyperlinked titles and brief descriptions of Websites offering vegetation distribution information. Most of the world's forests are covered here, with many protected areas highlighted. This massive effort will reap rewards for those who take the time to explore. In addition to the extensive listings of plant distribution sites, a final section, Other Sites, offers a compilation of cartographic links for botanists and an Internet directory for botany.
