perutimber

Lifecycle: stable CRAN status R-CMD-check Project Status: Active - The project has reached a stable, usable state and is being actively developed.

The R package, perutimber, provides easy access to taxonomic information for over 1,300 vascular plant species found in the “Catalogue of the timber forest species of the Amazon and the Peruvian Yunga”. This package is based on the authoritative publication by Vásquez Martínez and Rojas Gonzáles (2022) titled “Catálogo de las especies forestales maderables de la Amazonía y la Yunga Peruana” in Revista Forestal del Perú 37(3, Número Especial): 5-138. With perutimber, researchers and enthusiasts alike can efficiently explore and analyze the timber plant species.

Installation
