A_dataset_of_multi_functional_ecological_traits_of_Brazilian_bees.csv

Here we provide a dataset of bees from mountainous areas of
Carajás National Forest (eastern Amazon) and Nova Lima (Atlantic Forest). It is a compilation of sampling efforts from 1983 to 2018
through the accession of data stored in museum collections. In total, 222 and
144 bee species were recorded in Carajás and Nova Lima, respectively. This
represents the most robust dataset of Brazilian bees including functional
traits (body size, flight range, distribution, crop pollination, sociality and
nesting) of 328 species. This dataset contributes to advances in the knowledge
of the functional trait ecology of wild bees and can also benefit further
studies that analyze the response of wild bees to land use change and its
effects on the provision of crop pollination services. Validation procedures for the files can be found at: https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/CMJVX
