9 months ago This project collected 58,026 species occurrences for B&H (20,447 occurrences with around 2330 taxa - species and subspecies level - for the RS). In the second phase of this project that was conducted during 2017–2018, we aimed to collect data from phytosociological relevés (published and unpublished).
- Around 6000 relevés from B&H were digitized, while 2810 of them were georeferenced and then imported into RDBMS PostgreSQL. This way we acquired additional 98,178 occurrences of plant species (49,390 in RS). Together with the results from the first phase that sums up to 156,204 occurrences (69,837 for RS).
- Database structure complies with Darwin Core standard. Nomenclature and taxonomy were resolved using the GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) database.
- One of the results of the project was the first checklist of vascular flora of the RS. It consists of 2731 taxa at species and subspecies level, classified in 676 genera, 122 families and 45 orders. Our rough assessment is that this number represents not more than 80% of total vascular flora of RS. We also estimate that, from the beginning of the project in 2011, only about 50% of data about vascular plants and their distribution in the RS was prepared and imported into database.
