Description: Hi GBIFs,
Could you be interested in Arabic common names for this and many other species in the Arab part of the world? I know a specialist, Philippe Provencal (Natural History Museum of Denmark) - he would like to discuss this very interesting and rather complicated matter with you. He has studied this for more than 20 years and is an internationally leading researcher in this field.
Best regards, Lotte (DanBIF)]]>

Comment: would be good to contact Lotte and ask her that we would be very interested. All we need is some simple dwc archive checklist with the scientific name (plus basic classification like kingdom/family) and a common names extension
