NaturaLlist is a worldwide compatible mobile application that allows browsing and sharing your biodiversity observations in a casual way like a field notebook, by list or with more advanced tools for protocolled collection of data.
Several languages are available. See a list of all available languages at wiki section Various > Available languages.
Most functions are available for both Android and Mac. Some advanced tools, like protocols, are currently only available on Android.
