Data for fire regime shapes butterfly communities through changes in nectar resources in an Australian tropical savanna, 2019-2020

We studied responses of butterflies, vegetation structure, and floral resources to fire regime at a long-term fire experiment near Darwin in the Australian tropical savanna. This dataset consists of data collected during the 2019/2020 wet season at 18 1-ha plots in three blocks, where each block contains six randomly assigned fire treatments. We measured butterfly, vegetation structure, and floral resources data, and collected fire regime data. These data are associated with Leone et al. (2023). Fire regime shapes butterfly communities through changes in nectar resources in an Australian tropical savanna. Ecosphere. Along with its associated paper, we hope these data will provide helpful information for those working in fire management, butterfly conservation, and biodiversity conservation more broadly.
