# Land-use change interacts with island biogeography to alter bird community assembly **File List:** **community_data.csv** (bird species presence/absence on transects) **bird_trait.csv** (trait data for 96 species) **bird_trait_41spp.xlsx** (trait data for 41 species) **Final_data.csv** **bird \_tree.tre** (phylogenetic tree of 96 species) **bird \_tree_107spp.tre** (phylogenetic tree of 107 species) **bird \_tree_137spp.tre** (phylogenetic tree of 137 species) **File descriptions:** **community_data.csv** 96 species (rows) × 70 transects (columns) community matrix. **bird_trait.csv** (trait data for 96 species) Body mass (g, log10-transformed), relative bill length (bill length/body length), relative wing length (wing length/body length), relative tail length (tail length/body length), relative tarsus length (tarsus length/body length), and hand-wing_index (HWI, 100 * Kipp's distance/wing length) of 96 bird species recorded on 70 transects of 34 study islands in the Zhoushan Archipelago, China. **bird_trait_41spp.xlsx** (trait data for 41 species) Body mass (g, log10-transformed), relative bill length (bill length/body mass), relative wing length (wing length/body mass), relative tail length (tail length/body mass), relative tarsus length (tarsus length/bodymass), and hand-wing_index (HWI, 100 * Kipp's distance/wing length) of 41 bird species that were additionally sourced for the species pool analyses. Note 11 species were in bold that only for the species pool of 107 species. Please see Text S3 in the electronic supplementary material. **Final_data.csv** Transect ID, Island ID, species richness (SR), island area (ha, log10-transformed, log10A), isolation (m, I), standardized effect size of mean pairwise distance (sesMPD, sesMPD107, and sesMPD137), standardized effect size of functional equivalent of mean pairwise distance (sesMFD, sesMFD107, and sesMFD137), mean hand-wing index of co-occurring species (mean_HWI) on 70 transects of 34 study islands in the Zhoushan Archipelago, China. Please see Text S3 in the electronic supplementary material for the meaning of subscript of 107 and 137. **bird \_tree.tre** (phylogenetic tree of 96 species) The phylogenetic tree derived from BirdTree () for 96 bird species recorded on 70 transects of 34 study islands in the Zhoushan Archipelago, China. **bird \_tree_107spp.tre** (phylogenetic tree of 107 species) The phylogenetic tree derived from BirdTree () for 107 bird species (including 96 species above) recorded in the Zhoushan Archipelago, China based on China Bird Report database (). Please see Text S2 in the electronic supplementary material. **bird \_tree_137spp.tre** (phylogenetic tree of 137 species) The phylogenetic tree derived from BirdTree () for 137 bird species recorded in the Zhoushan Archipelago, China and three closest regions to the Zhoushan Archipelago (Shanghai, Jiaxing and Ningbo) based on China Bird Report database (). Please see Text S2 in the electronic supplementary material. **Note:** Above three phylogenetic trees of birds were downloaded from and have been uploaded as 'Supplemental Information' to Zenodo.
