Capture of Primary Biodiversity Data for West African Plants
Forest Herbarium Ibadan (FHI) is a repository of about 101000 specimens of vascular plants and cryptograms mainly from all parts of Nigeria and some other parts of the world. Forest Herbarium Ibadan is located in Taxonomy Section of the Department of Forest Conservation and Protection, Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria, Ibadan. The sources of FHI materials are from Taxonomic activities such as collections during routine field exploration, floristic projects and inventories. Other sources include specimens exchange from other herbaria (Nationally and Internationally), voucher specimens from scientists and research students and donations from private collectors. The objectives of FHI are to render Taxonomic services (Identification, Classification and Nomenclature), conserve and monitor the distribution and status of the flora of Nigeria through plant collection and botanical exploration of her regions and to encourage proper documentation of the flora. Today, FHI plays the role of a National herbarium in Nigeria. The present dataset hold about 17105 records of angiosperms cutting across 34 families in 415 genera and 1432 species with 18750 images linked to the data. These specimens were collected between 1842-2017.

Some collections of the Department of Plant and Ecological Studies Herbarium, University of Calabar
The department of Plant and Ecological Studies had existed as a unit from establishment of the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Nigeria, Calabar campus in 1973/1974 academic session. The Plant and Ecological Studies programme continued as a unit within the Department of Biological Sciences with the establishment of the University of Calabaron October 1, 1975. In April 2001, the Department of Biological Sciences was split into four autonomous departments, Plant and Ecological Studies, Genetics and Biotechnology, Microbiology and Zoology/Environmental Biology. The Plant and Ecological Studies programme is designed to achieve excellence in research and training in all activities relating to the use of plants with special focus on the following fields: Phytopathology (Mycology/Plant Virology option), Plant Physiology/Plant Biochemistry, Plant Ecology, Plant Taxonomy, and Ethnobotany. The department currently has an herbarium, which was established during the 1979/1980 Academic session to aid plant identification for students and researchers within the university community and its environs. It has since then, been in existence with a reasonable collection of plant species and number of supporting staff headed by a curator. The present dataset holds 101 records of preserved specimens collected between 1980 and 2013. It has 100 species in 13 families and 82 genera.

Odoanta of Akwa Ibom State University, Nigeria
Certain species of insects such as odonates, are used as bioindicators because they react intensely to disturbances in their living environment that could be due to anthropogenic or natural activities. Bioindicators or ecological indicators are taxa or groups of animals or plants that show signs when affected by environmental pressures due to human activities or the destruction of the biotic system. This result is from funding by GBIF (BID-AF2017-0311) and University of Lagos, Nigeria(CRC 2016/21) that involved the Digitization and Mobilization of Odonata of Southern Nigeria and molecular characterization, DNA barcoding and banking of Odonata of South western Nigeria respectively. So far, over 4000 colletions from Lagos, Osun, Oyo and Ondo States have been digitized. Odonate collections from Akwa Ibom State comprised 836 individuals from 23 species, and four families. The families were Libellulidae (75%), Coenagrionidae (24%), Calopterygidae (0.1%) and Chlorocyphidae (0.4%). Three dominant species found from the collections include Palpopleura lucia (39%), Orthetrum chrysostigma (9%) and Pseudagrion kersteni (9%). Two species with only one individual were Phaon iridipennis and Thoymis tillarga.

Nigeria Bird Atlas (Full Protocol Submissions)
This dataset for birds in Nigeria, is obtained from the Nigeria Bird Atlas Project (NiBAP), a member of the continent-wide project - the African Bird Atlas Project (ABAP). The NiBAP aims to map all of Nigeria’s bird species and describe their status with the help of valued input from Citizen Scientists – volunteer members of the public who are keen to contribute through going birding and submitting their observations to the project. The project has now been running since the end of 2015. The dataset published here covers from the beginning of the project in 2015-05-22 to 2022-01-23. To collect/digitize the data, a number of citizen scientists across the country were involved. This was possible with the aid of a digital data collection mobile application (Birdlasser: https://www.birdlasser.com/) and following an established bird atlas protocol for the Bird Map Africa. The submitted data are usually pipelined into a central database for the ABAP and displayed on the BirdMap Africa portal (http://www.birdmap.africa) after a thorough vetting process.

Mushroom Diversity of Cross River National Park Akamkpa Nigeria - Flora Database of University of Calabar
Cross River National Park, covers an area of about 4,000sq. km of primary tropical moist rainforest ecosystem in the south and central parts, and montane mosaic on the Obudu Plateau. It is an important ecological gene-pool containing one of the oldest rainforest in Africa. It lies in the Guineo-Congolian rainforest refugia with close canopy and scattered emergent trees which reach a height of between 40 and 50 metres. The vegetation is studied to have evolved over 60 million years. On account of its critical conservation status it has been designated as one of the 25 United Nations biodiversity hotspots in the world. Cross River National Park have two distinct, non-contagious Divisions: Oban and Okwango. Inventory of wild mushrooms occurring in the park (Oban Hills Division) was carried out between the months of April to September in 2015 and 2016 respectively. This dataset contains the results of the inventory: a total of 79 species of mushroom belonging to 54 genera and 36 families were identified.

The present data reports a number of angiosoerm species recorded in Permanent Sample Plot (PSP) 82 which is sited in Usonigbe Forest Reserve, Edo State, Nigeria. The plot is situated within longitude 6.6342° N and latitude 5.9304° E in the South-Southern zone of Nigeria. Predominant wind directions are southwest and northwest. Geological formation is the costal plane sand and this sand consists of red earth and form a relatively thick series. The herbs are poor and consist of the following species sparsely distributed over the area: Dracaena sp, Aframomum sp, Palisita barteri, salacia spp, palisota ambigua and Psychotria sciadephora. The natural high forest has three strata of trees, viz the emergent consisting of trees whose crowns show above the general level of the canopy. The characteristics of the forest are the presence of a large number of wood climbers (Leaves) and (b) the incidence of buttresses of plank roots. The tallest trees of the emergent storey range to 150ft or more in height. The canopy at about 100ft or more is closest. The lower storey itself is about 30 to 50ft high. The present dataset contains 150 angiosperm records.
