Abstract
This data paper describes the results of a 10-year scientific investigation of a biodiversity-rich private golf estate in south-eastern France in partnership with PatriNat (Office français de la biodiversité/Centre national de la recherche scientifique/Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, Institut de Recherche pour le Développement). In total, 3,160 species and subspecies, including 1,796 arthropods and 1,049 flora, were inventoried and 65 habitat types were surveyed and mapped. This project is the first All taxa biodiversity inventory (ATBI) in a private property in France with all information available in open data. The 20 datasets of fauna, flora, lichens and habitat types from the Bois de Bouis estate are now publicly available. Between 2012 and 2022, more than 22,000 occurrences were recorded, checked and published in the INPN information system. All this information is available in open access in the French portal OpenObs, operated by PatriNat and in the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). This data paper provides an overview of the project, its main results and its contribution to the French National Inventory of Natural Heritage (INPN). This data paper presents a list eight species never previously recorded to France; three Hymenoptera: Charitopes leucobasis Townes, 1983 (Ichneumonidae), Dryinus tussaci Olmi, 1989 (Dryinidae) and Sparasion munitus Kozlov & Kononova, 1990 (Sparasionidae) and five Diptera: Clusiodes apicalis (Zetterstedt, 1848) (Clusiidae), Dicraeus vagans (Meigen, 1838) (Chloropidae), Stilpon intermedius Raffone, 1994, Stilpon subnubilus Chvala, 1988 and Tachydromia undulata (Strobl, 1906) (Hybotidae). It also includes a table comparing the project to 18 All-taxa biodiversity inventories in France and Belgium and published for the first time.
