Accurate detection for monitoring specific species is crucial in critical fields such as conservation and public health. Our species detection services are designed to generate robust data by utilizing sensitive, efficient, and non-invasive techniques, particularly suited for protected, endangered, invasive, and epidemiologically significant species.
By employing specific genetic markers characteristic of each species, we create a robust system for the detection and monitoring of organisms in their natural habitats, including vulnerable, pathogenic, or invasive species.

Deciphering Nature’s Language
Our approach involves the use of environmental samples for DNA extraction to determine the presence, absence, or frequency of target species with significant accuracy. These insights are crucial for early pattern detection as well as for long-term observation of species distribution patterns.
Advantages over Traditional Field Methods
The eDNA approach proves particularly valuable when working with species that pose a challenge to direct observations, including rare, elusive, or cryptic species, or in vast and remote areas.
Whether it’s about securing protected species, controlling the spread of invasive or disease-causing species, or unraveling the population dynamics of endangered species to shape conservation strategies. Our precise detection methods enable our clients to meet legal and environmental standards, advance scientific knowledge, and develop effective management and conservation strategies.

FAQ Single Species Identification
Single Species Identification is a specialized service we offer at Faunomics, focused on accurately identifying and cataloging individual species within an ecosystem. Utilizing cutting-edge genetic, acoustic, and image recognition technologies, we can pinpoint specific species from environmental samples, sounds, or images, providing precise data for research, conservation, and management purposes.
Our approach combines non-invasive sampling methods like environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis, bioacoustics monitoring, and advanced imaging techniques. By extracting and analyzing genetic material or capturing specific sounds/images in an environment, we can identify the presence of particular species without direct interaction, ensuring minimal disturbance to their natural habitats.
This service offers numerous advantages, including the ability to detect elusive or rare species, monitor biodiversity, implement conservation strategies effectively, and understand the dynamics of specific populations. It’s an invaluable tool for ecological research, environmental impact assessments, and biodiversity conservation efforts.
Yes, our methodologies are versatile and can be applied across various habitats, from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystems. Whether it’s dense forests, urban areas, freshwater streams, or marine environments, we can tailor our identification techniques to suit the specific needs of each location.
Our Single Species Identification service is highly sensitive and designed to detect even trace amounts of genetic material or specific signatures in sounds and images. This high level of sensitivity, combined with our advanced analytical techniques, ensures a high degree of accuracy in species identification.
Absolutely. Early detection of invasive species is crucial for managing ecological impacts, and our service can identify potentially invasive species before they become established. This early warning system allows for more effective management strategies and mitigation efforts.
Depending on the target species and the environment, we may use a variety of samples, including water for eDNA analysis, audio recordings for bioacoustics, or photographs and videos for image recognition. Our team will guide you on the best sampling techniques for your specific requirements.
