Dataset of paper "Modeling the current distribution of Pouteria decorticans (Sapotaceae) in the Amazon Basin"
Resumo
This dataset compiles all verified occurrence records of Pouteria decorticans across its known distribution in the Amazon Basin. Records were sourced from GBIF, speciesLink and the NY Herbarium French Guiana e-flora project. All entries were manually checked for taxonomic accuracy, locality consistency, coordinate correctness, and removal of duplicates or misidentifications. Coordinates were validated against locality descriptions, and missing coordinates were georeferenced using the Google Maps platform. The dataset supports the Species Distribution Modeling analysis conducted in the paper “Modeling the current distribution of Pouteria decorticans (Sapotaceae) in the Amazon Basin” by Gama et al. (2025) – DOI https://doi.org/10.55905/oelv23n12-158
