However, too often plant species are overlooked in conservation planning, and the resulting protected areas may, as a result, fail to encompass the most important sites for plant diversity. The Mozambique Tropical Important Plant Areas project sought to promote the... -

To clean or not to clean: Cleaning open‐source data improves extinction risk assessments for threatened plant species
Plants are under‐represented in conservation efforts, with only 9% of described species published on the IUCN Red List. Biodiversity aggregators including the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and the more recent Botanical Information and Ecology Network (BIEN) contain a wealth of potentially useful occurrence data. We investigate the influence of...Panter, Connor T. ; Clegg, Rosemary L. ; Moat, Justin ; Bachman, Steven P. ; Klitgård, Bente B. …
