Description

All plant species records held by SEWBReC for the South East Wales region. This includes the taxonomic groups "flowering plant", "fern", "ginkgo", "conifer", "clubmoss", "horsetail" and "quillwort" (as defined by the Recoder 6 Species Dictionary).

Purpose

These records have been collated from a wide variety of sources both recent and historical.

Sampling Description

Quality Control

The data has been checked with NBN Records Cleaner (08/03/2016), which indicated that many of these records increase the known range for a number of species. Most of the records (80%) have been through the county recorders for verification, but this is an ongoing process and some unverified records are included.

Method steps

Data have been collated from a wide range of direct observation sources. Method and spatial accuracy of records vary by individual recorder.

Taxonomic Coverages

Geographic Coverages

Primarily within the SEWBReC area (Glamorgan and Gwent) and intersecting with the SEWBReC boundary. There are however additional records from outside this area that have been entered using SEWBReCORD (our online recording webiste) as we maintain the top copy of these records.
