01Narrative

Stipa borysthenica is a perennial bunchgrass species in the family Poaceae, native to Europe and Asia. It is a common species in a wide area of Kazakhstan and southern parts of Russia. In many European countries (e.g. Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Ukraine) it is a post-glacial relict and protected endangered plant. Seeds of Stipa borysthenica

05DNA & barcoding5 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 Stipa borysthenica has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA27 detections

Where the DNA of Stipa borysthenica 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 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.
