Encyclopedia of Life
A page for every species...
It is mind-boggling to think about the diversity
of life here on Earth. There are 1.8 million species known to
scientists! These species fall into several different
categories, of course. For example, there are plants, animals,
bacteria and viruses.
The Encyclopedia of Life has set an ambitious
goal. It aims to provide information on all 1.8 million species.
As you would expect, the encyclopedia contains some strange and
amazing species. You'll have fun browsing the pages. Or, get down to
business by searching by name.
You'll find a fair amount of information on each
species. There are also links to sites where you can learn more.
This site is fascinating. It's also a valuable asset for students
and teachers. And, if you'd like to help with the site, you can.
Just visit its Help Build EOL page for more information!
