To search for a species in the Coffee Species database, you have two primary methods:
General Species Table:
- Navigate to the "Species" web page.
- The general species table is displayed in alphabetical order.
- Browse through the table to find information on various species.
Search Option:
- On the left side of the "Species" web page, use the search option for a more specific single species search.
- Enter criteria such as Species names, Section, presence in living collection, or species name synonymy.
Upon obtaining search results, the information is presented in three panels on the Result page:
