GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility)
Billions of species occurrence records, free and keyless to read
GBIF aggregates open biodiversity data from museums, herbaria, citizen science and research worldwide: species taxonomy, distributions, and billions of georeferenced occurrence records. The REST/JSON API offers name matching, species lookup, and real-time occurrence search. Reading is fully free and keyless; only large asynchronous downloads require a free account.
