Global dataset with mammal species diet specialization and distribution range

Global dataset with mammal species diet specialization and distribution range For each mammal species, are indicated the preferences of type of diet, body mass (g), distribution range (km2) and values of diet specialization index based on the Gini coefficient of inequality. The values of diet preferences for each mammal species, expressed as a percentage, were taken from Wilman et al. 2014. The level of diet specialization was calculated following the methodology described in Morelli et al. 2019, to estimate the degree of diet specialization of each mammal species using the Gini index of inequality.
