iNaturalist defines itself as an “online social network of people sharing biodiversity information to help each other learn about nature” and it is likely one the largest citizen science web portals in world, every year millions observations across thousands species are gathered collectively compiled by engaged community nearly 3 million users (November 2023). The strengths potentialities that explain success platform reviewed include, among others, its usability low technical requirements,...
The Costa Brava, a Mediterranean coastal strip spanning ca. 250 km (in NE Spain), is hotspot of plant invasions. To address this issue, the LIFE medCLIFFS project was launched to improve management invasive species along sea cliffs in region. initial phase involved designing more than 100 transects distributed across coastline, each 1 length, which were be monitored by volunteers. During fieldwork for transect design, we identified total 126 alien species. This substantial number,...
Abstract Invasive alien species are currently considered one of the main threats to global biodiversity. One most rapidly expanding invasive plants in recent times is Kalanchoe × houghtonii (Crassulaceae), an artificial hybrid created 1930s United States by experimental crossings between K . daigremontiana and tubiflora , two endemic Madagascar. Thanks its large colonizing capacity (mainly derived from production asexual plantlets), soon escaped cultivation quickly spread many parts world....

Abstract Challenges in the collection of vouchers, either because physical properties material (species difficult to collect or press, e.g., palms, cycads, toxic plants, and cacti) drying may have a negative effect on taxonomic characters (e.g., colour), recommend use photographs complement herbarium specimens. In series cases (enumerated present contribution), however, it be impossible and, thus, only option document presence plant given locality. We propose this paper some guidelines for...

The BC-Salvador herbarium, conserved in the Botanic Institute of Barcelona, is oldest plant collection known Spain, with 4025 sheets collected between late seventeenth century and middle eighteenth. Joan Salvador, main contributor, sent duplicates some these to James Petiver Hans Sloane; are now as a part BM-Sloane herbarium. Both herbaria conserve testimonies first well-known systematic explorations Balearic Islands carried out by Josep Salvador 1711 1725. In this article we list contents...
Cities are often hotspots for biological invasions, showing much higher percentages of alien species than non-urbanized settings. The reasons multiple and mostly related to two main factors: their heterogeneous, highly disturbed habitats many gateways that allow introduction (e.g., airports, roads, train stations, or gardens). In addition being a sink cities can also be source the spread into surrounding landscapes, which adds further complexity this issue. Herein, we presenting results...
At the time of war Spanish Succession (1705–1714), Joan Salvador and James Petiver, two apothecaries with an impassioned interest in understanding nature, began a long fruitful correspondence that would only come to end Petiver's death. When this exchange letters began, was 20-year old Catalan apothecary who had just spent years travelling through France Italy learning about botany natural history some best teachers at time. 20 older, member Royal Society, director Chelsea Physic Garden...

Durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIX el químico y botánico catalán Frederic Trèmols Borrell (1831-1900) reunió un herbario de notables proporciones (casi trece mil ejemplares) con alto porcentaje (más 60%) material procedente intercambio. A partir análisis estos ejemplares, todos ellos provenientes diferentes tipologías exsiccatae, se expone metodología que usaban los botánicos aficionados para ampliar sus colecciones.

La presente monografía reúne diversas propuestas que versan sobre los lugares de encuentro: espacios producción científica no convencionales, y las culturas la curiosidad: prácticas contempladas como propias una disciplina, pero aportan conocimiento, estableciendo un intercambio con esfera diversificando del conocimiento. Difuminando, hecho, esa frontera entre lo científico científico, en procesos enriquecimiento pensamiento conocimiento nunca es lineal pueda ser marcada nitidez.
El herbario BC-Trèmols fue creado durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIX por el químico y botánico catalán Frederic Trèmols i Borrell. Entre 1930 1960, técnico Antoni Marcos llevó a cabo una profunda revisión. La colección actual consta aproximadamente de unos 9000 pliegos; está formada 58 volúmenes reordenados Marcos, más otros dos con estructura original, cuatro cajas Hieracium 85 material adicional.

Abstract On Christmas Day 1704, at 17 h ( UT ), a meteorite fell in Terrassa (about 25 km NW of Barcelona). The fall was seen and heard by many people over an area several hundred kilometers it recorded historical sources. In fact, interpreted as divine sign used for propaganda purposes during the War Spanish Succession. Although believed that fragments were never preserved, here we discuss recent discovery two (49.8 33.7 g) Barcelona Salvador Cabinet collection (Botanic Institute They are...
