|---|---|
| Description: | Introducing a novel and updated database showcasing Peru's endemic plants. This meticulously compiled and revised botanical collection encompasses a remarkable assemblage of over 7,249 distinct species. The data for this resource was sourced from the work of Govaerts, R., Nic Lughadha, E., Black, N. et al., titled 'The World Checklist of Vascular Plants: A continuously updated resource for exploring global plant diversity', published in Sci Data 8, 215 (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41597-021-00997-6>. |

The dataset provides a curated and up-to-date collection of Peru's endemic plant species, gathered from reputable botanical sources and publications. The data for this database was extracted and compiled from the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP) database, which is a comprehensive and reliable repository of botanical information.
Researchers, botanists, ecologists, and nature enthusiasts can use this dataset to explore and study the unique and diverse flora exclusive to Peru. The dataset is particularly valuable for conducting studies related to biodiversity, conservation, and ecological research.
The dataset has been carefully compiled and updated to offer the latest insights into Peru's endemic plant species. Original sources of the data include authoritative botanical publications and research articles available in the WCVP database.
