Charismatic flowering plants - complete lists

Citation

Finnish Biodiversity Information Facility (2025). Charismatic flowering plants - complete lists. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/36r8zr accessed via GBIF.org on 2025-07-08.

Description

A checklist of visible, easy to identify Finnish flowering plants. These visible and charismatic plants represent a total of 300 species, including both abundant and rare species. The list includes vascular plant taxa native or established in Finland in 7th June 2023. The records include complete checklists of observer trips. Observers mark down each species or taxon they have observed. The data is presence-absence or “free” abundance data. Observations must include location, date and time data. Checklists should be considered to show real absences. The data does not include any aggregate taxa. List of taxa on entry form until 2025-04-28: https://wiki.helsinki.fi/xwiki/bin/view/luomusict/Luomus Biodiversity Informatics Unit/Projects/Complete lists metadata/ Data quality: The quality of data is, as of 7th June 2023, unknown. Data may include incomplete lists, overtly long or short observation efforts or mislabeled observations. Data curation is necessary before using data for research.

Sampling Description

Sampling

Complete checklists collected by a wide variety of amateur and professional users. Absences should be considered to be real absences. User error may lead to incomplete lists erroneously included.
