Data for "A trade-off between latitude and elevation is a possible driver for range segregation of broadly distributed cave-dwelling spiders"

Tab-delimited(.txt) occurrence database used to generate the analysis in the study:

Mammola S, Hesselberg T, Lunghi E (2020) A trade-off between latitude and elevation is a possible driver for range segregation of broadly distributed cave-dwelling spiders. Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, accepted.

Occurrences were thinned prior to analysis to control for spatial autocorrelation. The complete database of occurrence localities of Meta spiders in Europe is being published and made available in an associated data paper (Hesselberg et al., in preparation).
