• HERBIER DE GUYANE (IRD-CAYENNE)

  The Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, formerly known as ORSTOM, is one of the most active research presences in French Guiana. Links to other research organizations in French Guiana, such as Silvolab, are available at this site.

• STATION DES NOURAGUES

  The Station d’Etude de la Forêt tropicale en Guyane Française allows researchers to undertake studies in a tropical ecosystem that has not been disturbed by humans. Links to other related sites are available as well as information on booking research time at the station. The station is managed and financed by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS).

• FUNGAL AND PLANT DIVERSITY OF CENTRAL FRENCH GUIANA

  A somewhat out-of-date site dealing with nearly 35 years of research on the plants of the area surrounding the village of Saül by the IRD and the New York Botanical Garden. The checklists in this site and those of the current site are derived from the same database. However, information associated with the checklists is not as current as that found on this site. In other words, use the current site to consult for information about plant systematics.

• BIOGUIANA

  A site designed to coordinate and facilitate research in all disciplines of the natural sciences in the Guayana Biogeographic Province.

• OTHER PLANT CHECKLISTS OF THE GUIANAS

  Biological Diversity of the Guiana [Guayana] Shield. This web site is the primary source for information about the plants of the Guayana Shield. The link provided here goes directly to the plant checklists but there is much additional information about the Guayana region at the site.
