An R Package for Mining Global Plant Diversity and Distribution Data

v3.0 · Feb 24, 2026 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Produces diversity estimates and species lists with associated global distribution for any vascular plant family and genus from 'Plants of the World Online' database <https://powo.science.kew.org/>, by interacting with the source code of each plant taxon page. It also creates global maps of species richness, graphics of species discoveries and name changes over time.
