Methods

Method step description: 
- . 	Conducting of field trips with organizing of geobotanical descriptions.
- . 	Registering of plant and other species.
- . 	Species identification with the help of relevant specialists.
- . 	Georeferencing.
- . 	Organizing of the dataset according to Darwin Core standards.
Study extent description: The research was carried out during route surveys in the period from 2014 to 2024 in the territory of the Kamianskyi district of the Dnipropetrovsk region. Some records from Donetsk region (2014) and Kirovohrad and Mykolaiv regions are included into the dataset as well. The author expresses sincere gratitude to the co-authors of the descriptions: Shynder O., Davydov D., Maniuk V., Parkhomenko M., Oliiar G.
Sampling description: The largest number of routes was carried out in the period from the first half of March to the end of October, in general, the research covered the entire year. The natural complexes of the Right-bank steppe of the Dnieper region, the basins of the rivers Mokra Sura, Domotkan, Samotkan, Omelnyk, Saksahan, and the Dnieper gulch system were examined. Also, in August 2021, research was conducted in the branch of the Ukrainian Steppe Nature Reserve "Chalk Flora", in August 2023 - in the regional landscape park Granit-Steppe Pobuzhzhia. When discovering the locality of a rare plant species, photographs were taken and geolocation of the point was carried out using a GPS navigator. The names of plant species are given according to "Vascular plants of Ukraine". A nomenclatural checklist, with some modern changes. Findings are listed in chronological order of description.
Quality control description: The author is fulli responsible for the quality of data provided within the dataset.
