Temporal Coverage

Project Data

The vascular flora of Sierra del Mendaur (northern Spain) was assessed. An inventory was conducted based on fieldwork and taxa were identified.

Sampling Methods

Samples were collected between the years 1977 and 1980, but most of the specimens were collected in the last two years.

Method step description:

1. Plant collection. Plant vouchers were selected and collected in the field.
2. Identification to species or subspecies level. Identification was performed between 1977 and 1980 by C. García-Zamora, L.M. Medrano and J.C. Báscones using Flora europaea (Tutin et al. 1964-1980).
3. Plant conservation. Specimens were dried and pressed for conservation using standard protocols. Vouchers were deposited in the herbarium of the University of Navarra.
4. Numbering and digitization of vouchers. From 2012 to date, each specimen was labelled, with a unique collection number, and digitized, using HERBAR software (v3.7.1 Pando et al. 1994-2010).
5. Revision of species identification. Original identification of some herbarium specimens was revised using Flora iberica (Castroviejo 1986-2015). Between September 2013 and January 2018, the identification of 11 specimens was corrected, and was refined in 21 , either by providing the specific or the subspecific epithet.
6. Names of municipalities, localities and place names were standardized according to Toponimia Oficial de Navarra (http://toponimianavarra.tracasa.es/).
7. Georeferencing. Localities were georeferenced using geographic or UTM or coordinates. Datum and uncertainty were also assigned.
8. Internet exportation. Data were exported from the HERBAR database under a Darwin Core format (Wieczorek et al. 2012).
9. Data checking and validation. Coordinates, characters and format of dates were checked for possible mistakes using Darwin test software (v3.3, Ortega-Maqueda & Pando 2008). This software allowed validating data in the Darwin Core format.
10. Metadata were documented and the dataset was published in the GBIF data portal using the Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT v2.3.5) of GBIF.es (http://ipt.gbif.es/).
