We already know a great deal about the birds and plants of the islands, in comparison our knowledge of most of the invertebrates, and fungi is very limited. If you look at the distribution maps for many of the animals and plants found on the Scottish mainland on the National Biodiversity Network Gateway on-line database you will discover that there are comparatively few records for the Outer Hebrides
