Abstract
The work focuses on the RE.NA.TO Project that proposes guidelines for the preservation of both faunal and floral elements as well as plant communities at high risk of extinction in the Tuscany region. The main goal of the project is to create a Catalogue in which all the information on current and future natural history data will be collected by means of descriptive files and distribution maps including geo-referred GIS data. 472 plants and 84 plant community types were identified as at the greatest danger. In addition, 88 habitats in which these plants and communities are likely to occur were located. The data collected, thanks to this project, will allow a detailed survey of biodiversity in the area and better management of the regional territory.
