  abstract = {{A} growing interest is devoted to global-scale approaches in ecology and evolution that examine patterns and determinants of species diversity and the threats resulting from global change. {T}hese analyses obviously require global datasets of species distribution. {F}reshwater systems house a disproportionately high fraction of the global fish diversity considering the small proportion of the earth's surface that they occupy, and are one of the most threatened habitats on {E}arth. {H}ere we provide complete species lists for 3119 drainage basins covering more than 80% of the {E}arth surface using 14953 fish species inhabiting permanently or occasionally freshwater systems. {T}he database results from an extensive survey of native and non-native freshwater fish species distribution based on 1436 published papers, books, grey literature and web-based sources. {A}lone or in combination with further datasets on species biological and ecological characteristics and their evolutionary history, this database represents a highly valuable source of information for further studies on freshwater macroecology, macroevolution, biogeography and conservation.},
