Distribution of Ipomoea violacea (Convolvulaceae): patterns, gaps and reports for its occurrence in Brazil and West Tropical Africa - Supplementary Data

These are 4 supplementary data files for the paper "Distribution of <i>Ipomoea violacea </i>(Convolvulaceae): patterns, gaps, and reports for its occurrence in Brazil and West Tropical Africa" published in the journal <i>Rodriguésia</i>. <br>The CSV files include geographical coordinates for the taxonomically verified specimens of <i>Ipomoea violacea</i> L. that form the foundation of the study.There are 4 separate files: <br>African &amp; Indian Ocean records [29 records]; <br>Americas (North, Middle, South, Caribbean) records [146 records]; <br>Asian &amp; Pacific records [226 records]; <br>and a combined file with all the records merged [401 records]. <br>These geographical data form the basis for the global distribution reported for <i>Ipomoea violacea</i> and are the basis for our discussion of its biology and dispersal. <br>Specimen records were compiled in BRAHMS software between 2002-2020 and have been exported as Excel tables in CSV format with selected fields only, including: <br>scientific namecollector name(s)collector numberduplicates (acronyms follow <i>Index Herbariorum</i>)collection date <br>countrymajor areaminor areagazetteerLatitude (NS)Longitude (EW) <br>unitscoordinatesLatitude decimalLongitude decimal<br>
