The Flora e Funga do Brasil project is the most comprehensive effort to reliably document Brazilian plant and fungal diversity. It involves the collaborative work of hundreds of taxonomists, integrating detailed and standardized morphological descriptions, nomenclatural status, and geographic distribution information of plants, algae, and fungi collected throughout Brazil. Despite the extensive information available, managing the information from the Flora e Funga do Brasil website poses certain challenges.
florabr is an R package developed to facilitate the exploration and geographical analysis of species information derived from the Flora e Funga do Brasil. Unique to florabr is its ability to interact with the latest, or any other version of the dataset, which undergoes weekly updates. I illustrate the practical application of florabr in common tasks in biogeography and conservation studies.
florabr is anticipated to be of significant interest to biogeographers, ecologists, curators of biological collections, and taxonomists actively contributing to the Flora e Funga do Brasil.
巴西植物与真菌项目是对巴西植物和真菌多样性进行可靠记录的最全面努力。它涉及数百名分类学家的合作，整合了在巴西各地收集的植物、藻类和真菌的详细且标准化的形态描述、命名状态以及地理分布信息。尽管有大量可用信息，但管理来自巴西植物与真菌网站的信息仍面临一定挑战。
florabr是一个R包，开发它是为了便于对源自巴西植物与真菌的物种信息进行探索和地理分析。florabr的独特之处在于它能够与最新版本或数据集的任何其他版本进行交互，该数据集每周更新。我阐述了florabr在生物地理学和保护研究的常见任务中的实际应用。
预计florabr会受到生物地理学家、生态学家、生物标本馆馆长以及积极参与巴西植物与真菌项目的分类学家的高度关注。
