This archive lists the taxa for which there are trait data in the FAIRTraits_TraitValues Occurence archive deposited on the GBIF portal. This, and the other files which constitute the FAIRtraits database, are described in detail in a data paper submitted to the journal "Ecology".
The current Checklist archive gives selected features of these taxa, mostly taken from the "Flore de la France méditerranéenne continentale" (2014; J.-M. Tison, P. Jauzein & H. Michaud. Naturalia Publications, Turriers, France). The full list of variables (name in the original data file mapped with Darwin Core fields in brackets) and their definitions are given below:
SpeciesName (acceptedNameUsage): Name of species taken from a local flora (latin binomial without authority)
taxonRank (taxonRank): The taxonomic rank of the most specific name identifying a taxon
CodeSp (taxonID): Identification code of the species (4 first letters of genus name and 4 first letters of species name)
Kingdom (kingdom): The full scientific name of the kingdom in which the taxon is classified (here: Plantae for all taxa)
Family (family): The botanical family of species
LifeCycle1 (LifeCycleUnstructured): Primary life cycle of species (annual, monocarpic perennial, perennial)
LifeCycle2 (not mapped; available in original file): Secondary life cycle of species (annual, monocarpic perennial, perennial), if any
LifeForm1 (LifeFormUnstructured): Pimary life form of species sensu Raunkiaer (1934)
LifeForm2 (not mapped; available in original file): Secondary life form of species sensu Raunkiaer (1934), if any
SuccessionalStage (HabitatUnstructured): Successional Stage Indicator Value
PlantHeight (NaturalHistoryUnstructured): Lower (MinHeight) and higher (MaxHeight) values of plant height taken from a local flora
FloweringStart (StartTimeInterval): Beginning of flowering period (month)
FloweringEnd (EndTimeInterval): End of flowering period (month)
PhotosyntheticPathway (TrophicStrategy): primary mode of atmospheric carbon dioxide fixation of the taxon (C3, C4, CAM)
Chorology (DistributionUnstructured): Geographic distribution of species
scientificName (scientificName): Scientific name of the species with authority
nameAccordingTo (nameAccordingTo): Identifiant number of the species in TaxRefv16 referential
scientificNameID (scientificNameID): Uniform Resource Identifier of the species in TaxRefv16 referential
