This dataset contains records of vascular plant species from selected TERN AusPlots in South Australia. Preparation from raw data involved extraction of all vouchered species from the plots, the removal of intra-specific taxa (only genus and species used to define individual taxa) and removal of duplicate records and those not determined to species. Species list has been appended in this record.

Purpose
An empirical project aiming to identify areas in South Australia with high biodiversity values and their intersection with threatening processes at regional scales. 
Lineage
Data Extraction: AusPlots data were obtained via the AEKOS Data Portal (aekos.org.au; extraction date 12/6/2014) and subsequently subsetted to lists of all vouchered species from selected plots, specifically, all available plots in South Australia (at that time) located between -26S and -29S degrees latitude. These latitudes were chosen to supplement other data sources as this area of South Australia is more sparsely sampled.
