Taxonomy of genus Dalea L. in Peru
Project summary:
The Peruvian Andez host a diverse flora with high significant endemism, including 15 species of Dalea L. (Fabaceae). This study aims to delimite and describe the Peruvian Dalea species through morphological analysis and nomencltural revision. This will involve a comprehensive examination of herbarium specimens and targeted fieldwork to ensure accurate species delimitation and support conservation efforts.
