| Poisonous Plants Search Page |
|
Our databases cover only selected species of poisonous plants, particularly those of major
medical importance. We use the most recent taxonomy available to us, therefore if you use
an old scientific name you may not find the species you are looking for. For searches based
on geographic area, always use Country first before selecting Region, but be aware that we have
yet to assign country or region to most records. Region works only as an OR selection in our
databases. For example, if a plant is found only in Australia, it will appear in the Region
"Australia", but if it also occurs in New Guinea, it will only appear in the Region
"Australia + New Guinea + Indonesia". Therefore if you search for Australian plants using only
Country "Australia", you will get a complete list of those in our databases. If you
search on Region "Australia" instead, the list will be less complete, because it will return
only those species found exclusively in Australia.
