myrcia_predictors: Extinction risk predictors for Myrcia species.

myrcia_predictorsR Documentation

Extinction risk predictors for Myrcia species.

Description

A dataset containing predictors to use in automated conservation methods for species of the genus Myrcia. These predictors were prepared for the paper Evidence-based guidelines for automated assessments of plant species, and described in detail there. The dataset contains a mixture of assessed and unassessed species. Assessments were compiled from the IUCN Red List v.2021-3 and predictors were calculated across observed localities for each species as downloaded from GBIF.
