BID_Strengthening Malawi's Biodiversity Information Facility_Threatened plants of Malawi

Malawi has an estimated 339 records of Threatened plants which are currently being digitized in BRAHMS database. This dataset is a fraction of what the herbarium has in its current collection. Most of these samples do not have collector names and numbers attached to them and as well as georeferences because they are quite ancient dating back to 1927. Georeferencing was accomplished using a Malawi Collecting localities list extracted from Flora Zambesiaca: collecting localities in the Flora Zambesiaca area by Pope & Pope(2000 https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/distributed/F/bo9856065.html and GEOLocate program http://www.geo-locate.org/.
