collecting in France?

[Pierre Zagatti]

A little bit late to reply (just after _cold_ holydays) :

The list of species protected in France (all Invertebrates):

http://www.inra.fr/Internet/Hebergement/OPIE-Insectes/observatoire/pro-fran.htm

The list of species protected in the Paris area (Region Ile-de-France) :

http://www.inra.fr/Internet/Hebergement/OPIE-Insectes/observatoire/pro-rp.htm

The site is in French, but without any problems for scientific names :-)
-no flame against US lovers of common names- :-)))

There are no other regional lists, but there are sometimes local
restrictions : National Parks (not in Carcassonne area), natural
reserves (generally closed) and many private areas not always closed.

Have a good day,

Pierre Zagatti
