Open Data: It is a condition of the author and the Dipterists Forum project management team that datasets extracted from the above adhere to the FAIR principles: findable, accessible, interoperable & reusable. Accordingly digitisers must submit datasets compiled from the above to NBNt for upload to NBN Atlas. The Occurrence sheet in the DwC is suitable for direct submission
