- Amphibians & Reptiles 157 photos in 2 sub-albums Europe is home to 79 species of lizard, 32 species of snake and 75 different species of amphibians. Given the elusive nature of many of these animals, finding and photographing them is a challenge.
- Birds (Aves) 3135 photos in 37 sub-albums There are in excess of 10,000 different species of birds in the world. By far the largest concentration of bird species are found in South America with over 3,200 species. In comparison, approximately 1,000 different bird species have been seen in Europe, over 400 species breed here. Contained within 34 galleries are over 1650 images of many of these species.
- Fungi, lichens and slime moulds 273 photos The Fungi Kingdom is of their own, more closer related to animals than plants! They lead a double life, one above ground with light and air, the other below ground, dark with water and minerals. Slime moulds are now considered to form a separate kingdom from fungi but as we have few examples thus far, for the moment they are staying in the fungi folder. Lichens are a complex life form that is a symbiotic partnership of two separate organisms, a fungus and an alga. The dominant partner is the fungus, which gives the lichen the majority of its characteristics, from its thallus shape to its fruiting bodies. These Galleries contain hundreds of incredible images.
- Insects 3485 photos in 75 sub-albums The Insect Gallery contains over 2000 images within 12 sub-galleries grouped by insect type. The Moths sub-gallery is a collection of over 1000 images of macro and micro moths and is a useful resource in moth identification.
- Invertebrates 41 photos 93 photos in 2 sub-albums Invertebrates make up nearly 99% of animal diversity in the world and occupy a central role in the survival or maintenance of most ecosystems.
- Mammals 531 photos in 17 sub-albums Europe is home to a vast array of mammals, from land-based predators such as the Scottish Wildcat, Lynx, European Wolf, Wolverine, Brown bear and even Polar Bear. The seas around our shores are home to many mammal predators including seals and Dolphins, Otters and of course, Orcas. European mammals come in all shapes and sizes and are perfectly adapted to live in the diverse habitats of Europe.
- Molluscs 24 photos in 1 sub-album Molluscs are an important phylum of invertebrate animals. Most of them are marine but as you will see from this library, many also live on the land and freshwater.
- Plants 253 photos 99 photos in 2 sub-albums Europe contains many different types of habitat. Artic tundra, alp meadows and mountain peaks, lowland heath, fresh water lakes and ever increasingly, urban areas, are just some of those habitats making up the European landscape. Plants, in all their sizes and colours have been able to exploit all of these landscapes.
