Using the database

Information can be retrieved from DBIF in the following ways:

  • by exploring the invertebrate families and sub-families covered by DBIF families

  • by searching for either an invertebrates , hosts.aspx or literature sources in the relevant page (follow the ‘Search for …’ headings on the Main Menu bar).

  • by following the hyperlinks available on the main results pages (the full details of each interaction can be viewed by ‘drilling-down’ in this way)

Be aware that wider searches will return more information and it will take longer to receive the results.
