Revision of BHL data search from Tue, 2013-03-05 11:45

Step 1: Automatic search

For each butterfly species in the checklist we did a preliminary automatic search in BHL for pages where the species were mentioned.

Step 2: Key word matching

Then, we used our keyword list to select the pages with information about biotic associations, resulting in XXXX pages.

Step 3: Automatic download

Next, we implemented a routine to automatic download in PDF format the pages selected, and built a file with the following information:
