Bryophytes Occurrences Dataset Based On SYKO Herbarium Moss Collection

The dataset with 49,726 bryophytes occurrences (49261 moss occurrences and 465 liverworts occurrences) located predominantly on the territory European North-East Russia was described in this data paper. The dataset was based on the digitized moss labels from the Institute of Biology of Komi Scientific Сenter of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences herbarium (SYKO). The information from the labels was recognized, cleaned and brought into compliance with the Darwin Core. More than 99.9% of occurrences were georeferenced with a precision of at least 3 km. For each occurrence the original label image URL was given. The dataset contains occurrences of 539 moss and liverworts taxa (species and lower ranks) belonging to 190 genera and 75 families.Information about 49,726 bryophytes occurrences was published in GBIF.
