Africadiv is a network of 1-ha forest monitoring plots spread across the moist forests in central Africa. This dataset holds the inventory of tree species in the Cameroonian site of Mindourou II. In each plot, the diameter at breast height (DBH) of all trees with DBH ≥ 10 cm have been measured (n=5598). All trees were identified in the field by expert botanists. Leaves samples were frequently collected for genetic analyses along with herbarium samples. The herbarium and leave samples are conserved at the Herbarium of the Université Libre de Bruxelles (BRLU, Belgium) and the determination of the samples is frequently updated by ULB's botanists. End of 2016, the identification rate was: 56.4% on species-level, 26.2% on genus-level, 11.7% on family-level. 5.7% remained unidentified.

Africadiv is a network of 1-ha forest monitoring plots spread across the moist forests in central Africa. The Cameroonian site of Mindourou II is composed of 12 1-ha forest plots. The following data are available for the different plots at this site: Structure - DBH of all trees ≥ 10 cm DBH : n = 5 598 Structure - Tree height : n = 920 Structure - Trunk height : n = 667 Structure - Crown diameter : n = 233 Identification rate - species-level : 56.4 % Identification rate - genus-level : 26.2 % Identification rate - family-level : 11.7 % Identification rate - unidentified : 5.7 % Soil samples & analyses available : YES Geolocation : GPS points and laser measurements (distance, vertical & horizontal angles) every 20 m on the contour of the plot. These data are routinely collected and used by AMAP research unit (IRD) and partners (LaboSyst, Yaoundé 1 University).
