Description

In 2010, Brazil met Target 1 established by the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC-CDB), within the scope of the Convention on Biological Diversity, with the publication of the “Catálogo de Plantas e Fungos do Brasil” and with the release of the first online version of the “Lista de Espécies da Flora do Brasil”. The “Lista do Brasil” project, as it became popularly known, ended in November 2015, with the publication of five articles and their respective databases. In early 2016, the “Flora do Brasil 2020” project was launched, aiming to fulfill Target 1 established by the GSPC-CDB for 2020, with morphological descriptions, identification keys and illustrations for all species of plants, algae and fungi known to the country. By the end of 2020, monographs for all families of Bryophytes, Ferns and Lycophytes and Gymnosperms native to Brazil were made available in a broad and unrestricted way, as well as monographs for 90% of Angiosperm families. The results achieved were a consequence of the collaborative work of almost 1,000 taxonomists, Brazilians and foreigners, in an online platform for the inclusion of data from the taxonomic groups of their specialty. In addition to preparing the monographs, these researchers were also responsible for including information on nomenclature (accepted names vs. synonyms) and geographic distribution (by states in Brazil, endemism and Phytogeographic Domains), in addition to including valuable data on life forms, substrate and vegetation types for the species worked, and these informations are available here as a DwC-A files. However, the monographs completed by 2020 for Algae and for Fungi were not able to cover the real diversity of these groups in Brazil and this was a stimulus for the beginning of this new phase of the project, in early 2022, and since than the project adopt the name Flora e Funga do Brasil. This change aims to seek a more inclusive biological terminology for the Fungi Kingdom and a greater engagement of the mycological and lichenological community, both for the improvement of the list of species occurring in the country, and for the elaboration of monographs.

Data Records

The data in this checklist resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 154,329 records.

6 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
