PAMP-tracheo: Vascular plants in Ribera Occidental de Navarra (Spain). PhD project, L. Garde

Description

This dataset provides information about 3496 preserved specimens of vascular plants from 1289 species and subspecies and 97 families. The specimens were collected in the PhD project of Garde (1990), project that includes her undergraduate thesis (Garde 1981), that assessed the vascular flora of Ribera Occidental de Navarra (NE Iberian Peninsula, Spain). An inventory was conducted based on fieldwork and taxa were identified. From them, 58 were mentioned as new records for the province of Navarra at the moment of the study.

It is a region located in the SW of the province of Navarra (Spain), in the river Ebro basin. Its geographic coordinates vary from 42º40’N (Puente la Reina) to 42º13’N (Milagro), and from 2º25’W (Logroño) to 1º40’W (Olite).

Country: Spain. Province: Navarra (N Spain). Region: Ribera Occidental de Navarra (SW Navarra).

Methods

Selection and collection of specimens in the fieldSpecimens were dried and pressed for conservation using standard protocols. Vouchers were deposited in the herbarium of the University of Navarra.Identification to species or subspecies level using morphological characters. Identification was performed between 1982 and 1990 by L. Garde and M.L. López using Flora europaea (Tutin et al. 1964-1980) and Flora iberica (Castroviejo et al. 1986-1990, volumes 1 and 2).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).Nomenclature was updated using Flora iberica (Castroviejo 1986-2010).Names of municipalities, localities and place names were updated according to Toponimia Oficial de Navarra http://toponimianavarra.tracasa.es/).Localities were georeferenced using x- and y- UTM coordinates. Uncertainty was also assigned.Coordinates, characters and format of dates were checked for possible mistakes using Darwin test software (v3.3, Ortega-Maqueda & Pando 2008). This software also allowed the data to fulfil the Darwin Core Standard (Wieczorek et al. 2012).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/).
