Data for "The function of geophagy in Nepal gray langurs: sodium acquisition rather than detoxification or prevention of acidosis"

Feeding data from instantaneous sampling by individual and month (n=155) for 21 Nepal gray langurs including total number of sample points, feeding on plants and soil as well as corresponding average values of sugar (soluble sugar in % of dry matter) and tannin (% quebracho units) content per sample point. Further descriptions can be found in the legend of the spreadsheet as well as in the methods of the article. Individual values of sugar and tannin content per plant item can be found in the supplementary material of the article.

本数据集涵盖21只尼泊尔灰叶猴 (Nepal gray langurs) 按个体和月份划分的瞬时采样 (instantaneous sampling) 取食数据，样本量n=155，包含采样点总数、取食植物与土壤的相关记录，以及每个采样点对应的可溶性糖（以干物质百分比计）与单宁（以Quebracho单位计的百分比）含量的平均值。数据集的更多详细说明可查阅配套电子表格的图例及该研究论文的方法部分。单株取食植物样本的糖与单宁含量的个体实测值，可参见该论文的补充材料。
