Abstract Such a large network as BIOTA AFRICA needs a professional 'corporate image' on the World Wide Web. A potential user of BIOTA's contributions to the biodiversity research has to find BIOTA AFRICA in the internet. For this and further purposes the website www.biota-africa.org was developed. The website presents information about the structure, the participants, the contents, the publications, and data of the BIOTA AFRICA initiative and associated projects.
Each BIOTA participant has a personal login 'My BIOTA'. Here s/he can edit her/his own personal data: password, address, phone, etc. It is also possible to assign own publications which are stored in the publication database to the personal profile. If a user searches for this profile in the participants list then these publications will be automatically shown in a chronological order. Personal logins have the advantage of specific assignments of user rights, e.g. remote inserts in the publications database or allowing of data downloads.
