Hi
I'm interested in the topic, but haven't been contributing information yet.
Some immediate issues that come to mind: Most areas would have more than one
species of flora, but not clear how to use the species tag in that way. Fauna
ranges are often not well defined in terms of existing landuse tags, so not
sure if it is "appropriate". Some cases could clearly be, such as a protected
area set up for a particular endangered species.
