UNDER DEVELOPMENT

This Julia package integrates online research sources about Plant species in China, including information of taxonomy, phylogeny, and conservation biology.

The data are not embedded in the source of this package. After installation, all materials will be downloaded automatically and processed once the related information is requested.

Currently data sources include the following three.
