Abstract

The dataset contains data on registration of more than 300 species of vascular plants in natural areas, including those found on the territory of the objects of the natural reserve fund of local importance, that are included in the Lower Sula National Nature Park (landscape zakaznik "Onyshkіrаvskyj", entomological zakaznik "Tarasenkivskyj", hydrological zakazniks "Orzhitsky", "Chutіvsky").

Spatial coverage

General spatial coverage: The dataset consists of records of vascular plants made on the territory of the Lower Sula National Nature Park within Cherkasy and Poltava administrative regions of Ukraine.

Methods

Method step description: 
- . 	Visual registration of the plants.
- . 	Species identification.
- . 	Georeferencing.
- . 	Organizing of the dataset according to Darwin Core standards.
Study extent description: During this project, the author organized research and documented the presence of species in the areas identified by the project in the priority regions.
Sampling description: The materials were collected by the methods of inventory and identification of species in the field conditions (detailed by route, scoping of geobotanical descriptions on key plots near natural boundaries of phytocenoses). The species list is shown randomly, but in chronological order. Species are named according to S.L. Mosyakin and M.M. Fedoronchuk [2]. The indication of species' higher taxonomic ranks has been carried out pragmatically following the classification of flowering plants [1].
