Bird species recorded in an untrained observer survey (UOS) and an expert observer survey (EOS) in 2011 in SE Peru

To evaluate the potential of community-based bird surveys in the tropics, we compared the species richness and abundances of bird functional groups that would be detected by a basic untrained observer (untrained observer survey, UOS) to a comprehensive bird species list compiled by a professional bird guide, in a coffee agroforestry landscape in the Peruvian East Andean foothills and compared functional signatures to global functional signatures of tropical bird assemblages.
The submitted data comprises the transect counts of the UOS, the comprehensive bird list, ecological data of the recorded birds and information regarding the conservation status of the recorded birds from the IUCN Red List.

为评估热带地区基于社区的鸟类调查应用潜力，我们以秘鲁安第斯山东麓的咖啡农林复合景观为研究区域，对比了未经专业训练的普通观测者调查（untrained observer survey, UOS）所能观测到的鸟类功能群的物种丰富度与种群丰度，与专业鸟类向导整理的完整鸟类物种名录，并将本研究获取的鸟类功能特征与热带鸟类群落的全球功能特征进行了比对分析。本研究所提交的数据集包含UOS样线计数数据、完整鸟类物种名录、记录鸟类的生态数据，以及来自世界自然保护联盟红色名录（IUCN Red List）的记录鸟类保护状况信息。
