The Global Assessment of Reptile Distributions (GARD) has been working to create the first global distribution database of reptile species. We are an informal, largely-unfunded consortium of scientists from across the world that work together to gather species-level data on the global reptile
distributions (~10,000 species). The new database is being analyzed to
identify patterns and drivers of richness, endemism, congruence with other
taxa, and threat, and to model distribution under climate change.
