Checklist of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau endemic seed plants based on GBIF records (≥5 occurrences)

Species presence was initially extracted from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), retaining only those taxa with five or more georeferenced records. For species with fewer than five GBIF records, supplementary occurrence data were retrieved from major Chinese regional databases, namely the Chinese Virtual Herbarium (CVH) and the National Specimen Information Infrastructure (NSII).

The final dataset integrates all available high-quality occurrences, providing a robust foundation for biogeographic analyses, conservation assessments, and modeling of endemic plant diversity on the plateau.
