Entre la creciente familia de portales Symbiota, el Portal de Biodiversidad de Guatemala tiene un rol prominente en la movilización del conocimiento de la biodiversidad de Guatemala.
Caption: Led by the University of Colorado, the SoRo community has been mobilizing collections from the Middle and Southern Rocky Mountains since 2017 (NSF Award 1702516). Their datasets have been aggregated in the Symbiota portal at SoRoHerbaria.org.
