概要 |
A database file ESAKIA, one of a public “Entomology Database KONCHU”, based on the journal Esakia is produced at the Computer Center of Kyushu University. The KONCHU is a general database name includi...ng various files of bibliographical and image databases. The former is based on main Japanese entomological journals and available by an on-line network to the world. It is a taxon-based database, treating a taxon as one record, i.e., species, genus, family, etc. Each record is constituted of 13 items, such as bibliographical, taxonomical, distributional data and key words. The ESAKIA file includes 6,326 records through 1993. Several retrievals on the ESAKIA file were executed and show that most records consist of taxonomic ones(80.30%), and of two orders, Coleoptera (63.71%) and Hymenoptera (25.88%), distributed in the Australian Region (New Guinea and Australia), as well as the Palaearctic and Oriental regions (Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan and South East Asia). Examples of use of the file using the database management system SIGMA are presented.続きを見る
