    Motivation: Geographic occurrences are essential for biodiversity studies, but publicly available repositories like GBIF often contain errors and biases, especially for taxonomically complex groups like Carex L. (Cyperaceae). This work provides an expert-curated global dataset of occurrences compiled from different sources to enhance data accuracy and usability. The final dataset includes 384,067 occurrences of 1790 Carex species. Main Types of Variables Contained: The dataset includes species occurrence records with geographic coordinates, taxonomic identifications, and curation flags (e.g., introduced, erroneous records). Spatial Location and Grain: The dataset covers a global scale, using the WGS84 projection. Spatial resolution is standardised to a minimum of three decimal degrees (~1 km, if possible). Time Period and Grain: Online records span from 1950 to 2020, but some manually georeferenced records are earlier (1850). There is also fieldwork data after 2020, specifically up to 2023. Major Taxa and Level of Measurement: Cyperaceae: Carex. Most records have species-level identification, and some of them are identified at subspecies or variety levels. Software Format: Data are supplied as comma-separated values files with UTF-8 encoding.

    Background The plant family Berberidaceae is represented in Ecuador by a single genus, Berberis. It comprises 15 species, seven endemic to the high Andean forests and páramos above 2,400 meters of altitude. These ecosystems, globally recognized for their exceptional biodiversity, are increasingly threatened by fragmentation and degradation, placing endemic species at serious risk of extinction. The conservation status of Berberis species in Ecuador was last assessed more than 20 years ago, underscoring the urgent need for a comprehensive and updated evaluation. New information This study presents IUCN Red List assessments for all endemic species of the genus Berberis in Ecuador. Incorporating the latest taxonomic revision, we evaluate Berberis engleriana and B. rigida for the first time. Among the five species previously assessed, three have retained their original conservation status, while two are now classified under a higher threat category. Conservation measures are proposed to mitigate extinction risk and support the preservation of these species.
