Aim: Globally, insects depend on forest habitats for shelter from disturbances and critical nesting and floral resources. Forest structural complexity can affect the distribution of these resources and likewise alter insect assemblages within forests. Despite the importance of temperate deciduous forests for bees and their outsized contribution to pollination services within forests and beyond, the relationship between forest structure and bees has received scant attention. This is especially true in managed temperate deciduous forests, where management strategies alter forest structural complexity and may therefore affect bee communities.Location: Illinois, United States of AmericaMethods: We investigated whether structural metrics derived from light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data could predict bee diversity and abundance, as well as bee functional trait composition within managed forest lands.

**Description of the data and file structure**
We investigated whether structural metrics derived from light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data could predict bee diversity and abundance, as well as bee functional trait composition within managed forest lands. We addressed three specific questions: 1) How does forest management affect structural complexity; 2) Can structural metrics predict bee diversity and abundance in spring and summer; and 3) How are structural metrics related to bee functional trait composition?
