01Narrative

Adromischus alstonii (лат.) — вид суккулентных растений из рода Адромискус (Adromischus), семейства Толстянковые (Crassulaceae), произрастающий на территории Намибии и ЮАР. Самый распространенный вид в Намакваленде (Намибия), который демонстрирует некоторые местные различия в длине стеблей и количестве ветвлений, размере и форме листьев, а также количестве и интенсивности пурпурных отметин на них. Это очень крепкое растение с плоскими листьями.

05DNA & barcoding1 specimens

A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Adromischus alstonii has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA1 detections

Where the DNA of Adromischus alstonii was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How strong is each trace?

DNA read depthRead counts were not reported for this species — the map shows presence only, not how strong each trace was.

How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
