  3. GBIF BY THE NUMBERS - MAY +4,248,604 species occurrence records +107 datasets +53 data-publishing institutions http://www.gbif.org | 01 JUN 2015

  4. LATEST NEWS GBIF France launches new national data portal for biodiversity Atlas of Living France provides free access to over 17 million biodiversity records published globally by institutions in France. • Africa Rising celebrates International Day for Biological Diversity with programme launch, joint declaration Release of ‘Declaration on biodiversity information for sustainable development in Africa’ closes international conference and first regional meeting for new BID programme. • http://www.gbif.org/newsroom/summary | 01 JUN 2015

DATA PUBLISHERS Trend in number of institutions registered as GBIF data publishers 750 700 650 600 550 500 450 400 350 300 250 200 A sharp rise in the number of data publishers in September 2013 results from institutions choosing to register as separate entities rather than sharing datasets through a single publisher at their national node institution. http://www.gbif.org | 01 JUN 2015
