Great Britain (= England, Scotland and Wales) has the National Biodiversity Network. See www.nbn.org.uk

There have been recording schemes for particular families or orders running for several decades, covering Great Britain and Ireland, run by volunteer scheme organisers (Tony Irwin was one for a while) under the umbrella of the Biological Records Centre at Monks Wood. I think it has recently moved to a new geographical site but its web site is still www.brc.ac.uk

Many of the recording schemes have their own web sites. The recording schemes for flies also come under the umbrella of the Dipterists Forum: www.dipteristsforum.org.uk
