Abstract: This site documents primary data about plants and fungi from the Hengduan Mountains and adjacent areas of south-central China, including the Gaoligong Mountains and Tibetan Himalaya. The mountains of south-central China, a dramatic and species-rich series of longitudinal ranges extending southeast of the Tibetan Plateau, are widely regarded as a global biodiversity hotspot. Primary sources of data are georeferenced collections from recent expeditions (1984-present) funded by a variety of sources. Browse or search for specimens in the database.
