Occurrence data for unidentified species and for species not yet listed in the species checklist of Seychelles
Citation
Seychelles National Herbarium (2022). Occurrence data for unidentified species and for species not yet listed in the species checklist of Seychelles. Metadata dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/4aeqbg accessed via GBIF.org on 2024-12-13.Description
This dataset follows the same format as for the checklist based on occurrence dataset https://www.gbif.org/dataset/d0b7cc29-8ce3-49ad-b1b6-675fd39412ee (seychecklist dataset). It provides all occurrences data from the BIO database that could not be included in the seychecklist dataset, for not being linked to one of the listed names. It requires attention as it contains either records for occurrences identified to species where infraspecific taxa are recognized in Seychelles, and species that are identified but not yet listed in seychecklist and which are either isindentifications or new records for the country.Purpose
This dataset ultimately aims at prioritizing conservation needs such as evaluating Key Biodiversity Areas, improving the Protected Area network, listing species that most need conservation action in Seychelles, and invasive species that require different types of actions.

Taxonomic Coverages
At the time of the first version of this dataset, we filtered only elements of Plantae, but in future the idea is to extend this dataset to a complete checklist of all species of Seychelles, for all taxonomic groups.
