Replication data for: Attacking shortfalls of aquatic plant diversity in the São Francisco Basin, Brazil's fourth hydrological region

Records of aquatic plants in the São Francisco River Basin (SFRB), based on primary data obtained through field expeditions of the Integration Project of the São Francisco River - PISF (with specimens deposited in the HVASF and HRSN herbaria) or information from other herbaria, available through the GBIF/speciesLink databases. The names and details of the herbaria housing the aquatic plant specimens collected in the SFRB can be found through the following links (https://specieslink.net/search/ or https://www.gbif.org/dataset/search) by searching for their respective acronyms.
