Conspectus of the Vascular Plants of Madagascar - Phase II (final)

《马达加斯加维管植物概览》项目是一项国际性、多机构合作的项目，涉及密苏里植物园（MO）、国家自然历史博物馆(P)、津巴扎扎植物园和动物公园（TAN）以及国家农业应用研究中心（TEF），该中心自1991年以来一直致力于收集有关马达加斯加维管植物多样性的信息。马达加斯加特有的受高度威胁的维管植物群，可广泛获取。作为生物多样性保护工作的即时临时资源，以及对正在进行的马达加斯加植物群专题丛书的补充，《概论》仔细吸收了来自原始文献的经过验证的命名和书目数据，以及历史和当代标本数据。信息可以在马达加斯加的PC版本中访问，也可以作为MO的互联网/万维网资源的一部分访问。在项目的第二阶段和最后阶段，核心分类数据捕获将完成。标本数据采集也将以在TAN和TEF输入所有适当标记的标本结束，有效地将这两个植物标本室计算机化。将采集模式标本，以及其他代表标本，以证明每个省和保护区中分类群的发生。在整个项目中，对历史标本进行艰苦的地理坐标事后分配，将实现物种分布的自动测绘，并为地理信息系统（GIS）应用程序提供完整的数据访问。收集数据的地理参考还导致编纂了马达加斯加植物收集地点的地名辞典，该辞典将在第二阶段的第一年上线。标本担保的图像、与类型相关的历史插图以及类型本身将被纳入数据库，并与核心标本和命名数据相关联。影像也将用于制作马达加斯加维管植物科和木本属的互动识别系统。马达加斯加网（http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/Madagasc）将继续作为传播马达加斯加生物多样性信息的有效手段。完整的电子版《马达加斯加维管植物概论》将面向广泛的终端用户，从为《马达加斯加植物》系列准备专题治疗的国际专家，到负责评估、保护和可持续管理马达加斯加丰富的植物生物多样性的马达加斯加非政府组织。——aÝ；<s:1>ª- <e:1> = ÓaOÀ h¢µ+‘ª’ 0·ª& &；8 D P X ' l Ùµó áááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááá Meredith‘ S MacHD：应用程序：Microsoft Word：模板：正常美国国家科学基金会美国国家科学基金会’@ Ãv+=ªt @ Ãv+=ªt @ ÀªÁa+ @ Microsoft Word 6.0.1 S u m ma y I I o o m ma I o o o o （áááááááááááá 9 +）áááááááááááá áááááááááááá áááááááááááá 3；<e:1>——aÝ——█；一个 ª aaaªaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa_Ðh O + e U Ul l l l l l l ¹ ¹ ¹ ¹ ¹ ¹ ß ¹ * = ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ & g X + J * l ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ * ¼ l l ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ l ¼ l¼Ã Û l l l l l l¼X¼

Conspectus of the Vascular Plants of Madagascar - Phase II (final) The Conspectus of the Vascular Plants of Madagascar Project is an international, multi-institutional endeavor involving the Missouri Botanical Garden (MO), the Mus─um National d'Histoire Naturelle (P), the Parc Botanique et Zoologique de Tsimbazaza (TAN), and the Centre National de la Recherche Appliqu─e au Dev─loppement Rural (TEF), whose goal since 1991 has been to make information on the diverse, endemic and highly threatened vascular plant flora of Madagascar widely accessible. Serving as an immediate interim resource for biodiversity conservation efforts, and a complement to the ongoing monographic Flore de Madagascar series, the Conspectus carefully assimilates verified nomenclatural and bibliographic data from primary source literature, as well as historical and contemporary specimen data. Information is accessible both in a PC version in Madagascar, and as part of MO's Internet/World Wide Web resources. During the second and final Phase of the project, core taxonomic data capture will be completed. Specimen data capture will also conclude with the entry of all adequately labeled specimens at TAN and TEF, effectively computerizing those two herbaria. Type specimens, as well as additional representative collections at P that voucher the occurrence of taxa in each province and Protected Area, will be captured. Painstaking post-facto assignment of geographical coordinates to historical specimens throughout the project will allow automated mapping of species distributions and full accessibility of data for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications. Geo-referencing of collection data has also resulted in the compilation of a Gazetteer to the Botanical Collecting Localities in Madagascar that will go on-line during the first year of Phase II. Specimen-vouchered images, historical illustrations associated with types, and the types themselves, will be incorporated into the database and linked to core specimen and nomenclatural data. Images will also be utilized in the production of an Interactive Identification System for the families and woody genera of Malagasy vascular plants. The Madagascar Web (http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/Madagasc) will continue to serve as an effective means of disseminating information on Malagasy biodiversity. The completed electronic Conspectus of the Vascular Plants of Madagascar will reach a broad diversity of end-users, from international specialists preparing monographic treatments for the Flore de Madagascar series, to Malagasy NGO's charged with assessing, conserving, and sustainably managing Madagascar's rich plant biodiversity. -- aݪ ▀ ; ᪠ªá = ÓaOÀ h¢µ +'ª`0 ·   ª &amp; , 8 D P X ` l Ù µ ó áááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááá Meredith's MacHD:Applications:Microsoft Word:Templates:Normal National Science Foundation National Science Foundation '@ Ãv+=ªt @ Ãv+=ªt @ Àª Áa+ @ Microsoft Word 6.0.1 S u m m a r y I n f o r m a t i o n ( áááááááááááá 9 + áááááááááááá áááááááááááá áááááááááááá 3 ; ᪠-- aݪ ▀ ; ᪠áá᪠áááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááááá_Ðh O+ e Û Û l l l l l l l ¹ ¹ ¹ ¹ ¹ ¹ ß ¹ * = ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ &amp; g X + J * l ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ * ¼ l l ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ l ¼ l ¼ Ã Û l l l l ¼ ¼ X ¼
