Description
This occurrence database contains records of the lichens based on the herbarium specimens deposited at the Tribhuvan University Central Herbarium (TUCH) managed by the Central Department of Botany, Tribhuvan University Nepal. This database is a part of a project funded by the Biodiversity Information Fund for Asia (BIFA; project no. BIFA05_23 to Shiva Devkota) program of Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) supported by the Ministry of Environment, Government of Japan and co-funding came from the Himalayan Climate and Science Institute (HCSI), ForestAction Nepal and Global Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies (GIIS).

Données sur le projet
A research project on Digitization of mycological collections in Nepal is being implemented by the Global Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies (GIIS), Kathmandu in collaboration with Department of Plant Resources (DPR), Ministry of Forest and Environment, Government of Nepal, Central Department of Botany, Tribhuvan University (CDB, TU) and Natural History Museum (NHM), Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu. The DPR is managing National Herbarium and Plant Laboratories (KATH), the CDB TU is managing by Tribhuvan University Central Herbarium (TUCH) and the NHM TU is managing one and only natural history museum in Nepal. Mycological collections of both wild mushrooms and lichens that have been deposited at KATH, TUCH and NHM were digitized.

| Financement | The main funding for this project (BIFA5_023) came from the Biodiversity Information Fund for Asia (BIFA) program of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) which was funded by the Ministry of Environment, Government of Japan and co-funding from the Himalayan Climate & Science Institute (HCSI), ForestAction Nepal and Global Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies (GIIS). |
| Description du domaine d'étude / de recherche | Nepal in South Asia |
| Description du design | The main goal of this project is to fill taxonomic, geographical and historical gaps in understanding mushrooms and lichens flora in Nepal. Furthermore, the following are key issues this project seeks to address: Issue I: Digitization of mushroom and lichen specimen and ancillary data / publications Issue II: Capacity building of involved project partners Issue II: Mushrooms and lichens expedition and documentations of their diversity (co-funding). Issue III: Bringing the knowledge on lichens and mushrooms in intergovernmental forum and assessment process. Issue IV: Finding Science-policy nexus for the resource identification and management. |

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
The occurrence records of the lichens of Nepal housed at Tribhuvan University Central Herbarium (TUCH), Central Department of Botany, Tribhuvan University, Nepal. Most of the specimens were collected and deposited by PhD scholars and M.Sc graduates during their course of the studies.

|---|---|
| Contrôle qualité | • Experts consultation (for taxonomic determination/confirmation and data geo-references), • Data cleaning using OpenRefine (https://openrefine.org/), • Data validation using GBIF data validator (https://www.gbif.org/tools/data-validator), • Data management in Darwin Core Standard Format using reference guide (https://dwc.tdwg.org/terms/), • Missing coordinate and geographic outliers check of the locations (https://www.google.com/earth/) |
Description des étapes de la méthode:
- • Pre-digitization curation and staging • Image capture and processing • Electronic data capture • Georeferencing • Data publication
Métadonnées additionnelles
| Objet | Digitization has been a fast-growing process mostly in academic institutions for the preservation and dissemination of knowledge. In the global north, collections deposited in the libraries, natural history museums, and herbaria have been more or less digitized than in the global south. Therefore, for the conservation of the biological diversity and associated knowledge, documentation, digitization and analysis of the specimens of the global south are crucial. Lichens in the other hand is already the understudied and underprivileged group and demands further research and extension. This digitization project aims to fulfil that gap and contribute to the records of GBIF by digitizing lichens herbarium collections deposited in different herbaria in Nepal. |
