The European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation (EPPO) Global Database aims to provide all pest-specific information that has been produced or collected by EPPO. The database contents are regularly updated.
The database contains:
- Basic information for more than 97,800 species of interest to agriculture, forestry and plant protection. This includes cultivated and wild plants, pathogens, and invasive alien plants. For each species, the scientific names, synonyms, common names in different languages, taxonomic position, and EPPO Codes are given.
- Detailed information for more than 1,900 pest species that are of regulatory interest (EPPO and EU listed pests) as well as pests regulated in other parts of the world). For each pest, the geographical distribution, host plants, and quarantine status are given. Where appropriate, vectors and biological control agents are included.

- EPPO standards.
- More than 15,000 images of plants and pests.
- Articles of the EPPO Reporting Service dating back to 1974.
