University of Navarra – Department of Environmental Biology. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15470/qdrvp3 accessed via GBIF.org on 2024-08-27.Description
This dataset provides information about 688 preserved specimens from 551 species and subspecies and 90 families of vascular plants. The specimens were collected in the undergraduate thesis project of García-Zamora (1980), which assessed the vascular plants of Sierra del Mendaur (Navarra, northern Spain).Sampling Description
Study Extent
The specimens were collected in Sierra del Mendaur (Navarra, northern Spain).Sampling
Samples were collected between the years 1977 and 1980, but most of the specimens were collected in the last two years.Method steps
- Plant collection. Plant vouchers were selected and collected in the field.
- 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).
- Plant conservation. Specimens were dried and pressed for conservation using standard protocols. Vouchers were deposited in the herbarium of the University of Navarra.
- 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).
- 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.
- Names of municipalities, localities and place names were standardized according to Toponimia Oficial de Navarra (http://toponimianavarra.tracasa.es/).
- Georeferencing. Localities were georeferenced using geographic or UTM or coordinates. Datum and uncertainty were also assigned.
- Internet exportation. Data were exported from the HERBAR database under a Darwin Core format (Wieczorek et al. 2012).
- 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.
- 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/).
Additional info
The origin of the PAMP Herbarium dates back to the arrival at the University of Navarra by Professor T.M. Losa España in 1964. One year later M.L. López Fernández began her doctoral thesis, maintaining her contributions to the herbarium uninterruptedly for several decades. Most of the material deposited in the herbarium comes from collections made by researchers from the Department of Environmental Biology (formerly Department of Botany) of the University of Navarra, as a result of theses and dissertations generally carried out in the territory of the Autonomous Community of Navarra (Spain). The herbarium store c. 100 000 sheets with dried specimens. The digitisation of the specimens has been done through the HERBAR v3.7.1 software (Pando et al., 1994-2010) and was supported by the Spanish Government (CGL2007-30978-E, CGL2009-08507-E and CGL2011-15056-E).Taxonomic Coverages
Out of a total of 688 specimens, 686 were identified to species or subspecies level. They belong to 551 species or subspecies and 90 families of vascular plants.
