The Checklist of the Vascular Plants of the Republic of Guinea (CVPRG) is a comprehensive listing of all vascular plant species known to occur naturally within Guinea (flowering plants, conifers, ferns, clubmosses and firmosses). Some non-native species are also included but coverage is not comprehensive.
The Checklist of the Vascular Plants of the Republic of Guinea is a specimen-based knowledge product, generated automatically from the Guinea Collections Database and the Guinea Names Backbone Database, both developed and maintained at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew in collaboration with the staff of the National Herbarium of Guinea.
We aimed to ensure that each vascular plant taxon reported in the CVPRG as occurring in Guinea is supported by at least one expert-verified collection-based record, including all taxa recorded in the Flore de la Guinée (Lisowski 2009). Key details are provided for these voucher specimens, as auditable evidence of the presence of the taxon in Guinea.
The Guinea Collections Database and the Guinea Names Backbone Database are each based on records from other databases and input from experts.
The Guinea Collections Database is based on an extract from Kew’s Wet Tropics Africa database which comprises records from environmental surveys for mining projects 2005-2015; records from botanical exploration and Red Listing activity in relation to Tropical Important Plant Areas and specimen records cited by Lisowski (2009) of taxa not represented in other sources. These data were complemented by: data obtained from GBIF for specimens deposited at K, MO and P; data sourced from P and georeferenced via the Guinea BID project; data sourced from BR, MO and WAG informed by the Rainbio database; specimen data provided by individual taxon specialists.
The Guinea Names Backbone Database is based on a 2019 download from the African Plants Database (APD continuously updated) for the Tropical Africa area. This was complemented by Plants of the World Online records for all taxa reported in Lisowski (2009). Records are added for taxa new to science as they are published.
The Checklist of the Vascular Plants of the Republic of Guinea, generated automatically from the Guinea Collections Database and the Guinea Names Backbone Database, underwent two rounds of expert review by 36 taxon specialists named below. For groups lacking a taxon specialist APD was followed.
We thank the taxon specialists and regional experts whose expert review has been fundamental to the quality of CVPRG. We thank all those who have compiled and shared specimen or names data with us over the years.
