This site was set up in 2011 as part of the FES-funded intiative of Naturalis Biodiversity Center to make the taxonomic information on Cholevinae more accessible. This initiative involved, besides this scratchpad, a DNA-barcoding project as well as a collection digitization project.
This scratchpad was set up by Rik Lievers and Menno Schilthuizen.
All Cholevinae-researchers are invited to actively contribute to its growth and usefulness.
