Back to index

The Ormef geo-portal is an interactive database that brings together the exotic marine species present in the Mediterranean Sea. ORMEF was created through the collaboration of two institutes of the National Research Council, the Institute for Biological Resources and Marine Biotechnology of Ancona (Cnr-Irbim) and the Research Institute on Population and Social Policies of Rome (Cnr -Irpps). This database is updated regularly and is freely accessible at Ormef.
