Flora & Fauna Web is Singapore's user-friendly one-stop information portal developed by the National Parks Board (NParks) that allows users to search for comprehensive information on plants grown in the region and animals found in Singapore. The platform caters to the growing horticultural interest and wildlife awareness among Singaporeans, providing detailed species profiles, identification guides, and ecological information. The database serves as a key reference resource for researchers, educators, landscape professionals, and the general public seeking authoritative information on Singapore's biodiversity. The portal maintains records of thousands of flora species and cultivars alongside hundreds of fauna species, featuring regular updates including Plant of the Month and Animal of the Month highlights. The platform documents significant biodiversity discoveries including new species records such as the Didymoplexis micradenia orchid (first confirmed record of the Didymoplexis genus in Singapore, assessed as Critically Endangered with fewer than 50 individuals recorded), and naturalized species additions to Singapore's official plant list. Flora & Fauna Web also provides educational content on species ecology, propagation techniques, and conservation status. Access Flora & Fauna Web to explore Singapore's rich biodiversity and support species identification and conservation awareness. |
