HOME/EUROPE/THE MATRIX

The Europe Matrix.

A complete wildlife calendar for the continent, kept entirely separate from the 354-species British archive. Every entry is numbered from E001 in the order it was added, and carries the months it is genuinely in season, an honest rarity band, the countries it lives in and the file that hunts it. Filter it, plan around it, tap what you actually see.

01 / HOW IT WORKS

A second book, numbered from the start.

The British Matrix is closed at 354 entries and numbered alphabetically, because the set is finished. This one is open, so it is numbered differently — and the difference matters.

NUMBERING

Accession order, never alphabetical

Entries are numbered in the order they are added and never renumbered. Alphabetical numbering would reshuffle the whole book every time a country landed, silently invalidating every entry already logged. E001 will be Killarney’s red deer for as long as this site exists.

SEPARATE

Nothing here touches the British ladder

Its own points, its own ranks, its own patches. A continental sighting never moves a British rank and never appears in the 354. The one thing the two archives share is the twelve month stamps — because going out in February is going out in February, whichever side of the water you are on.

COUNTRY BOOKS

Depth, not route length

Every country has a book of its own, built to the same depth as the British archive rather than to the length of one route. Each expedition file shows the slice genuinely on its route; this page holds all of it.

HONEST

Rarity means the same thing

COMMON you will see. LIKELY you should. LUCKY needs the day to go your way. RARE may take years, and some are pinned to a few square miles and a few weeks. Nothing is inflated to make the book feel generous.

02 / THE INDEX

Filter the archive.

Every entry in the book. Filter by month to see what is in season, by country to plan a file, or by rarity to find the ones worth building a trip around.

03 / BY COUNTRY

Where the book has reached.

Each new expedition adds its own entries and often its own country, and nothing already issued ever moves.

2333 entries, and every country has a book of its own. Built to the same depth as the British archive rather than to the length of a route, and covering all forty groups the British archive uses. Not one accession number has moved since it was issued.

04 / COLLECT IT

Tap what you actually see.

The same rules as the British field log, on a separate ladder. Common 1, likely 2, lucky 5, rare 10. Everything stays in this browser — no account, no sync, no server that knows where you went.

THE LADDER

Foot Passenger to Keeper of the Continent

Ranks run FOOT PASSENGER → DECKHAND → PILOT → WAYFARER → CARTOGRAPHER, with KEEPER OF THE CONTINENT at the true ceiling — every European entry, seen with your own eyes. One country will not get you near it, and that is the point.

PORTABLE

It lives in your browser

Clear your browser data and the log is gone. That is the honest cost of having no account: nothing to hack, nothing to sell, nothing to subpoena — and nothing to recover either.

THE FIELD LAW

Distance. Patience. Engine off.

Never approach a nesting colony, never dig for an amphibian, never pick a rare flower and never chase a mammal for a photograph. Several entries here are protected by law in their own country; all are better watched than disturbed.

NOT BUILT

No streaks, no leaderboards

The same deliberate absences as the British archive. No daily targets, no login rewards, no bonus events and no comparing yourself to strangers. The book rewards being somewhere at the right time of year and paying attention.

04B / THE ANGLING THREAD

Eighty-nine entries, and twenty of them are in trouble.

The British Matrix carries a full angling thread — brown trout, sea trout, grayling, charr, pike, barbel, mackerel, bass, the mayfly hatch. Forty-eight entries, and not one of them rare. Europe’s thread is nearly twice the size and reads completely differently.

89 entries across all twenty files, all eighteen countries and all twelve months — and 20 of them are rated RARE, because the fish that make continental angling extraordinary are the ones that are nearly gone.

THE ORDINARY HALFTHE ONE YOU FISH

What is in it

Eighteen trout entries, eleven salmon, six grayling, six Arctic char. France carries the most at fourteen, then Germany at ten, Ireland and Italy at seven each.

Bluefin tuna on the Spanish almadraba and again as Sardinian bottarga; perch off Swedish rocks; carp in the Třešoň ponds of Bohemia; garfish in the Danish May.

THE HUCHENFOUR BASINS

One fish, four entries

The Danube salmon: a metre-long predator found nowhere else on earth. It appears four times — the Austrian and German Danube, the Moravian tributaries, the Slovak Váh — because that is genuinely how you would have to go and find it.

THE RHINEEXTINCT 1958

A river being repaired

Atlantic salmon were gone from the Rhine by 1958. They are back, through fish passes, after decades of work across four countries. That entry is a river being repaired, filed as a species.

THE EELTHREE ENTRIES

The same collapse, three times

The delta, the IJsselmeer, the French marsh. Every one notes the same thing: a fish that breeds in the Sargasso Sea and has fallen by more than ninety per cent within living memory.

And the ones down to their last ground. The carpione, a trout in Lake Garda and nowhere else. The marble trout of the Soča, nearly lost to hybridisation. The apron du Rhône, confined to one basin. The European sturgeon of the Gironde, the last population in western Europe, and the Adriatic sturgeon, effectively extinct in the wild. Three seahorse populations — the Venice lagoon, the Étang de Thau among the oyster tables, the seagrass off Slovenia — all protected, none to be handled. In Irish loughs, pollan and Arctic char, whitefish left behind by the ice and gone from many of the waters that held them.

And in the Minho, on the Portuguese border, sea lamprey run up in spring — a jawless fish older than the dinosaurs, still doing it.

Filter the Matrix to Fish + angling for the whole thread, add a country for that nation’s water, or use the file filter for the practical question — what can I fish on the Adriatic file. Completing the group is a medal: forty-eight of the eighty-nine, the same figure every European medal uses.

FOUND THIS USEFUL?

Buy the crew a coffee, if you’d be so kind.

Everything in the free archive today - the expedition files, the Nature Matrix, the seven calculators and the Trip Engine - is free forever. In future, we may offer paid expansions for people who want more. They will add to the free archive, never take anything away from it.

But if a file saved you a wasted weekend, or the Matrix put a puffin in front of your children, you are very welcome to stand us a coffee. It goes on diesel, ferries and the next expedition — which comes back up here, free, for you.

Fuel for the Nebuchadnezzar£10 · ONE PAYMENT →

Entirely optional. One payment, never a subscription — and you can set any number up to ten at the checkout if you are feeling especially kind. No perks, no supporter tier, and absolutely no hard feelings either way.
