The FC has comprehensive, worldwide coverage of tropical, subtropical, temperate and boreal tree species of major economic importance. It contains detailed, illustrated datasheets on over 1300 forest trees, 800 forest pests, diseases and weeds, and basic information on a further 19,000 species. This is supported by the latest scientific findings, with bibliographic records and full text journal and conference articles updated weekly, and an interactive, multilingual glossary of more than 2000 forestry terms. Search tools include a taxonomy browse function.

See Updates for a quarterly list of updates; Overview for more information and Frequently Asked Questions; view Training Tools for information on searching and an introduction to the content.
