The point set contains data on the distribution of Cypripedium calceolus L. (Orchidaceae) in the Komi Republic. C. calceolus belongs to the group of flagship species of nature protection and is legally protected in all European countries and Russia. This orchid an emblematic plant from a conservation point of view. It is included in Appendix II of the Habitats Directive of the European Union (European Community Council Directive 92/43/EEC), classified as endangered on the IUCN Red List (IUCN 2001), and protected after its inclusion in regional catalogues of threatened species (Terschuren, 1998). The species grows in Scandinavia, Central Europe, in the Mediterranean, European Russia, in the Urals; Asia Minor, West and East Siberia, in the Far East of Russia, Mongolia and China (Averyanov, 1999). In the Komi Republic, C. calceolus belongs to its north distribution limit. It can be sporadically found in south areas of the republic. Its north distribution limit matches with the Middle and South Timan range, the North and Sub-polar Urals. It occurs in spruce, birch, and aspen forests, in forested swamps, in calcium outcrops. It is a calciphilous plant. Flowering is in June-July, fruiting in July-August. The point set was prepared with data obtained as a result of field studies of the authors, data published in scientific literature and acquired from vascular plant collection of SYKO herbaria. The research was supported by Project N 18-4-4-23 (АААА-А17-117121270031-2) of Ural Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences Complex Programme "Genetic diversity of rare species at the Northeast European Russia: inventorying and forecast of their stability under the climate changes"Sampling Description
Study Extent
The study was carried in whole territory of the Komi Republic. The occurrence data were collected from an area of approximately 416.8 thousand square km. The point set was prepared with data obtained as a result of field studies of the authors, data published in scientific literature and acquired from vascular plant collection of SYKO herbaria.Sampling
For each of the specimen location, topography, georeferenced was made.Quality Control
Data has been collected and identified by botanists from the Institute of Biology of Komi Scientific Centre of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.Method steps
- The data of long-term field studies of the authors conducted in the Republic of Komi, including in specially protected natural areas, were summarized on the MS Excel sheet. When carrying out field work, a route method was used to survey the sites typical for the growth of C. calceolus. For all identified locations of the species, geographical coordinates were recorded using Garmin CSX 60 GPS receiver (WGS 84), the number of plants, the area of distribution were estimated, and a brief description of phytocenotic parameters were fixed. The herbarium label data were taken from vascular plants collection of Institute of Biology of Komi Scientific Centre of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences Herbarium (SYKO). The every occurrence record where merged into one MS Excel sheet. In the database record the following parameters: collector, identifier, date of record, locality description, site charasteristic. Georeferencing was performed according to the method described in the publication "Guide to best practices for georeferencing" (Chapman, Wieczorek, 2006). Georeference of occurrence record where made with the help of available topomaps to the territory of the Komi Republic. For rough reference used maps with a scale of 1: 200000. More accurate binding was carried out according to the satellite images presented on a publicly accessible Internet resources (https://wego.here.com; https://yandex.ru/maps, etc.). C. calceolus is classed as high sensitivity species via categories of sensitivity provided by A.D. Chapman and O. Grafton (2008). Therefore, the data presented were denatured to 0.01 degrees (≈5 km). Data may bу supplied at finer scales on request to Authors under the conditions of a Data License. The species name were given according to “The Plant list” (http://www.theplantlist.org).

Geographic Coverages
The Komi Republic is located in the European North-East of Russia. Its area is about 416.8 thousand square km. It stretches 785 km from south to north (N59°11' to N68°25') and 695 km from west to east (E45°23' to E66°15'). The territory of the republic consists of two parts. The east part of the Komi Republic is located in the Ural Mountains (the Polar, the Sub-polar and the Northern Ural Mountains) and the other part in the Russian platform (including the Timan range, the Pechora lowland and Mezen-Vychega platform). The territory of the republic covers three natural zones: taiga, forest-tundra, and tundra. Climate of the republic is moderate continental: short and cool summers, long and cold winters with continuous snow cover. In the south part of the republic, climate is softer than that in north part. The sum of daily average temperatures above +10ºC is 1550º; the annual precipitation sum is 550-600 mm. The number of days with temperature above 0º is about 105 days. July is the warmest month with an average temperature +16- 17ºC. December (average temperature -15-17ºC) is the coldest month. Climate is more severe in the north and the north-east parts of the republic. Here, the sum of average daily temperatures above +10ºC is about 800-1000º, the annual precipitation sum is 420-460 mm. The number of days with air temperature above 0º is 70-85 days. The warmest month is July with monthly average temperature +12-13º C, the coldest month is December (average temperature -19- 20ºC).
