A Phytogeographical Metaanalysis of the Semiarid Caatinga Domain in Brazil - Supplementary Files

These files comprise the database in CSV format used for the analyses described in the paper “A phytogeographical metaanalysis of the semiarid Caatinga Domain in Brazil” published by Moro et al (2016) in The Botanical Review (http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12229-016-9164-z). The bibliographical reference for each floristic survey included in our study is given in the file “Appendix 1” and in the Appendix 1 of our paper. The Raunkiaerian life-form spectra analysed in our article and the bibliographical references for those studies are provided here in the file “Appendix 2” with additional data which do not appear in the paper. File 1 represents the initial dataset, with all occurrence data for all species at all sites. File 2 is the full list of species compiled with the habit attributed to each species. Files 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 are presence-absence matrices showing the occurrence of each species at each site subdivided as follows: 3.1 - occurrence of species in surveys presenting data on the general flora (woody and non woody plants reported in the same floristic survey) 3.2 - occurrence of species in surveys presenting only data on the woody flora (trees, shrubs and woody climbers) 3.3 - occurrence of species in surveys presenting only data on the non woody flora (subshrubs, herbs and non woody climbers).<br>For more information about the Caatinga Phytogeographical Domain, please, consult our paper.<br>

本数据集包含逗号分隔值（CSV）格式的数据库文件，用于支撑Moro等人2016年发表于《植物学评论》（The Botanical Review）的论文《巴西半干旱卡廷加（Caatinga）植物地理元分析》（DOI: 10.1007/s12229-016-9164-z）中所述的各项分析。
本研究纳入的每一项植物区系调查的文献参考文献，均收录于本数据集的"附录1"文件以及论文的附录1中。
本文分析的劳恩基尔生活型谱（Raunkiaerian life-form spectra）以及相关研究的文献参考文献，已收录于本数据集的"附录2"文件中，其中包含了论文未刊载的补充数据。
文件1为初始数据集，包含所有样点上所有物种的全部出现数据。
文件2为整理后的完整物种名录，附带每个物种的生长型信息。
文件3.1、3.2和3.3为物种出现/缺失矩阵，展示了各物种在各样点的分布情况，具体细分如下：3.1 涵盖同时记录木本与非木本植物的植物区系调查中的物种出现数据；3.2 仅涵盖仅记录木本植物（乔木、灌木与木质藤本）的植物区系调查中的物种出现数据；3.3 仅涵盖仅记录非木本植物（亚灌木、草本与非木质藤本）的植物区系调查中的物种出现数据。
