FishBase aims to make all relevant information on all fishes of the
world available for free on the Internet. This ambitious task is
achieved through a network of international partners coordinated by a
Consortium of currently nine (10) scientific institutions
(
CAFS,
AUTh,
FAO,
IOF-UBC,
WorldFish ,
GEOMAR,
MNHM,
MRAC,
NRM,
UFS
) who are providing support for this work.
The bulk of data entry and maintenance is done by a team of specialists
based in the Philippines. Funding for this team comes from research and
development projects secured by
Consortium partners and supported by our
donors. FishBase also accepts donations from private
sponsors and in recognition shows their logo and link in selected
Species Summary pages. Sponsorships start at $100 or 80 EUR per species per year. Please contact the
if you
are interested in becoming a FishBase sponsor.
