Ottawa, Canadian Heritage, 1997. HTML. Internet(WWW). "The Canadian Museum of Nature has created one of the world's largest pools of information on fossil and recent pollen and spores. The Palynology Database includes taxonomic, collection, geographic, preparation, and photographic information on about 15 000 species of plants. Geographic representation is worldwide, with emphasis on tropical and subtropical regions. All specimens come from vouchered herbarium material and therefore represent collections that may be referenced. " 1, record 1, English, - Palynology%20Database

Ottawa : Patrimoine canadien, 1997. «Le Musée canadien de la nature a mis sur pied l'une des sources d'information les plus considérables au monde sur les pollens et les spores fossiles et récents. La base de données de la palynologie, comprenant 15 000 espèces de plantes, contient de l'information taxinomique, géographique et photographique, ou encore à propos des collections et de la préparation. Les données concernent toutes les régions du globe, mais plus particulièrement les régions tropicales et subtropicales. Tous les spécimens proviennent d'herbiers dûment documentés et donc de collections auxquelles on peut faire référence.» 1, record 1, French, - Base%20de%20donn%C3%A9es%20de%20la%20palynologie
