Data set and analytic codes supporting "Length-biomass equations to allow rapid assessment of semi-aquatic bug biomass in tropical streams"

Body size and biomass data of semi-aquatic bugs (Gerromorpha, Hemiptera) collected in a range of habitat types (oil palm, oil palm with buffer, logged forest, and old-growth forest) in the SAFE Project (Stability of Altered Forest Ecosystems) experimental area, Maliau Basin, and Danum Valley. The sites are located in Sabah, Malaysia. In this study, we developed length-biomass equations to estimate the biomass of semi-aquatic bugs.
