La familia Asclepiadaceae en México

Citation

Villaseñor Ríos J L, Comisión nacional para el conocimiento y uso de la biodiversidad C (2025). La familia Asclepiadaceae en México. Comisión nacional para el conocimiento y uso de la biodiversidad. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/fs4nix accessed via GBIF.org on 2025-06-18.

Description

Proyecto para la generación de una base de datos en formato electrónico que optimice el manejo de la información florística-taxonómica contenida en las etiquetas de herbario de los especimenes de las Asclepiadáceas mexicanas, depositados en cinco de los herbarios más importantes de México. Esta base de datos contendrá un número mínimo de 7,500 ejemplares, en su gran mayoría debidamente identificados a nivel de especie. La familia Asclepiadaceae se distribuye ampliamente en México; todos los estados del país cuentan con registros para la familia (Villaseñor, datos no publicados). Sin embargo, no existe hasta el momento información confiable sobre cómo se distribuyen sus géneros y especies en el territorio nacional. Hasta donde sabemos, tampoco existe una base de datos que incluya la información sistematizada de los ejemplares herborizados que documenten su distribución geográfica, información básica para realizar estudios florísticos y/o taxonómicos a nivel regional, estatal o nacional.
