This dataset provides information about 312 preserved specimens from 126 species and subspecies and 31 families of vascular plants. The specimens were collected from 2006 to 2021 in 12 permanent plots located in Napal (Navarra, northern Spain).Sampling Description
Study Extent
The specimens were collected in an experimental area of 5500 m2 located in the Nature 2000 Special Area of Conservation of Sierra de Ugarra, near the village of Napal (municipality of Romanzado). Samples were collected between the years 2006 and 2021, on a yearly basis.Sampling
All vascular plants present in each plot were identified. Plant specimens were collected for appropriate identification and voucher.Method steps
- Plant collection. Plant vouchers were selected and collected in the field.
- Identification to species or subspecies level. Identification was performed between 2006 and 2021 by R. Ibáñez according to Flora iberica (Castroviejo 1986-2021).
- Plant conservation. Specimens were dried and pressed for conservation using standard protocols. Vouchers were deposited in the herbarium of the University of Navarra (PAMP).
- Numbering and digitization of vouchers. From 2006 to date, each specimen was labelled, with a unique collection number, and digitized, using Elysia software (v2.0 Pando et al.).
- Species identification. Identification of herbarium specimens was done using Flora iberica (Castroviejo 1986-2021).
- Names of municipalities, localities and place names were standardized according to Toponimia Oficial de Navarra (http://toponimianavarra.tracasa.es/).
- Georeferencing. Localities were georeferenced using UTM coordinates. Datum and uncertainty were also assigned.
- Internet exportation. Data were exported from the Elysia 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 (v3.4 Pando et al.). 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 v2.5.2) 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 is done through the Elysia v2.0 software (Pando et al.) and was partially supported by the Spanish Government (CGL2007-30978-E, CGL2009-08507-E and CGL2011-15056-E).Taxonomic Coverages
Out of a total of 312 specimens, 308 were identified to species or subspecies level. They belong to 126 species or subspecies and 31 families of vascular plants.
