Lichenized Fungi Collection in Tay Nguyen University

Data Records

The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 220 records.

1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Geographic Coverage

Most of the specimens were collected from some national parks (Chu Yang Sin National Park, Nam Nung National Park, Lam Dong Province,) located in Central Highlands of Vietnam and some other nearby places (Hon Ba Nature Reserve). Central Highlands lies on series of contiguous plateaus with the height of 500 – 1800 meters. All of these plateaus are surrounded by the high mountain ranges and mounts (South Annamite Range).

Taxonomic Coverage

Lichenized fungi (lichens)

Project Data

Following the impact and using the existing resource of the BIFA3_032 project, this BIFA4 project proposal aims to continue mobilizing the remaining Vietnamese bryophyte and lichen collections held in other Vietnamese herbaria and in foreign countries. These collections include the largest available material on Vietnamese bryophytes and lichens and provide together a nearly complete picture of cryptogam flora in Vietnam. Core activities of the project are to visit and examine the Vietnamese cryptogam collections in PC, EGR, TTN, PDU, KoLRI (& KH), and update the PHH collection. About 24% of the cryptogam specimens in PC (MNHN Herbarium, Paris) have been digitalized (mostly types) and among those waiting, there are thousands of specimens collected from Vietnam during the first half of XX century. In Eger, more than 1500 bryophyte specimens still needed to be identified and digitalized. When published, the data from historical collections in PC and EGR will help in the future work to clarify and re-assess the status of cryptogam observations in Vietnam, especially for those taxa that are now reported as “endemic to Vietnam”.
