Presence/absence data and altitude data per Ithomiini species in the incidence-dataset

Presence/absence data obtained from field inventories supplemented by specimen data from multiple museum and private collections for 15 sites from eastern Ecuador. Locations and altitudes of the sites are given in Chazot et al (2013, American Naturalist). Each species was assigned to a mimicry complex. Some species exhibit sexual dimorphism. In some cases different subspecies/forms belong to different mimicry complexes, and are considered as different taxa. Minimum, maximum, median and mean altitude of each species are also given (extracted from a database of 3193 species locality records, KRW unpublished data).

本数据集涵盖厄瓜多尔东部15个样地的物种存在与否数据，数据来源为野外普查结果，并补充了多座博物馆与私人收藏机构提供的标本记录。样地的地理位置与海拔信息详见Chazot等人2013年发表于《美国博物学家（American Naturalist）》的研究成果。所有物种均被归属于相应的拟态复合体（mimicry complex），部分物种存在性二型现象。在部分案例中，不同亚种或形态型隶属于不同的拟态复合体，因此被视为独立的分类单元（taxa）。此外，数据集还提供了每个物种的最低、最高、中位及平均海拔数据，这些数据源自包含3193条物种分布记录的数据库（KRW未发表数据）。
