- Scope Sanko uses
- 188 species from 460 households across every local government area of Rivers State, and the largest South-South source in the index. Local names are printed with the language in brackets, in the four languages the paper names: Ikwerre (83 names), Kalabari (38), Ekpeye (31) and Ogoni (32). Ikwerre, Kalabari and Ekpeye map onto ISO 639-3 as ikw, ijn and ekp. Ogoni does not: it names a cluster - Khana, Gokana, Eleme, Baan, Tee - so those rows keep the published label in language_as_published and carry no language code, rather than this file choosing one the paper does not state. Four rows print no language at all, and one repeats the botanical name in the local-name column ('Aloe vera') and so yields no mapping. Two pairs of specimens share a merged cell (PNM 24/25 and 44/45) and are paired in the printed order; all four are flagged. The article is a scan with no text layer, so Table 1 was transcribed from the page images and the transcription is committed at surveys/transcriptions/ as the form this repository rebuilds from. Botanical names are checked by GBIF downstream, where a misreading surfaces as an unresolved name; a misreading in a local name cannot be checked by anything, which is the cost of using a scan. The plant-part column was transcribed in a second pass and parsed against a vocabulary of part terms; all 188 cells parse with no leftover text. Ingested on the same terms as sonibare-2008-anti-asthmatic and olatokunbo-2022-bayelsa: freely readable, reuse terms unstated, only the published name mappings used.
