In this article we present a standardized dataset on 6659 songbirds (Passeriformes) highlighting information relevant to species conservation prioritization with a main focus to support the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). Data were collected from both scientific and grey literature as well as several online databases. The data are structured into six knowledge categories: Conventions and Treaties, Human Use, Extinction Risk, Management Opportunities, Biological Information, and Intrinsic Values. The Conventions and Treaties category includes the listings for two international conventions, CITES and the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS), as well as EU listings for the EU Wildlife Trade Regulations and the EU Birds Directive. The Human Use category contains information on both regulated trade collected from the CITES Trade Database and the United States' Law Enforcement Management Information System (LEMIS), and highly aggregated data on seizures which we obtained from TRAFFIC, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and two data sources on traditional medicine. We also present, for the first time, the complete Songbirds in Trade Database (SiTDB), a trade database curated by taxon expert S. Bruslund based on expert knowledge, literature review, market surveys and sale announcements. Data on the types of human use, including traditional medicine are also provided. The knowledge area on Extinction Risk contains data on the species' IUCN Red List status, the Alliance for Zero Extinction Trigger Species status, site and population at the site, the species' IUCN Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment, and the listing of priority species at the Asian Songbird Crisis Summit. In the Management Opportunities category, we gathered data on ex-situ management from Species360 zoo holdings as well as species management plans from the European and North American Zoo Associations (EAZA and AZA, respectively). Biological Information includes data on body mass, clutch size, diet, availability of data from the IUCN Red List on habitat systems, extent of occurrence, generation length, migration pattern, distribution, and biological data from the Demographic Species Knowledge Index, number of occurrences recorded by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) as well as genomic data from the Bird 10 000K Genomes (B10K) project, Vertebrate Genome Project (VGP) and GenBank. Information on invasive species is also part of this knowledge area. The Intrinsic Value category refers to two measures of the species' intrinsic value, namely Ecological and Evolutionary Distinctiveness. In order to make these knowledge areas comparable, we standardized data following the taxonomy of the Handbook of the Birds of the World and Birdlife (Version 4, 2019). The data enable a broad spectrum of analyses and will be useful to scientists for further research and to policymakers, zoos and other conservation stakeholders for future prioritization decisions.
在本文中，我们展示了一个关于6659种鸣禽（雀形目）的标准化数据集，突出了与物种保护优先级相关的信息，主要目的是支持《濒危野生动植物种国际贸易公约》（CITES）。数据收集自科学文献、灰色文献以及多个在线数据库。这些数据被构建为六个知识类别：公约与条约、人类利用、灭绝风险、管理机会、生物信息和内在价值。公约与条约类别包括两个国际公约的名录，即CITES和《保护野生动物迁徙物种公约》（CMS），以及欧盟关于《欧盟野生动物贸易法规》和《欧盟鸟类指令》的名录。人类利用类别包含从CITES贸易数据库和美国执法管理信息系统（LEMIS）收集的关于管制贸易的信息，以及我们从TRAFFIC、联合国毒品和犯罪问题办公室（UNODC）以及两个传统医学数据源获得的关于查获情况的高度汇总数据。我们还首次展示了完整的《鸣禽贸易数据库》（SiTDB），这是一个由分类学专家S. 布鲁斯伦德根据专家知识、文献综述、市场调查和销售公告整理的贸易数据库。还提供了包括传统医学在内的人类利用类型的数据。灭绝风险知识领域包含关于物种的国际自然保护联盟（IUCN）红色名录状态、零灭绝联盟触发物种状态、地点及该地点的种群、物种的IUCN气候变化脆弱性评估，以及亚洲鸣禽危机峰会的优先物种名录。在管理机会类别中，我们收集了来自Species360动物园馆藏的迁地管理数据以及欧洲和北美动物园协会（分别为EAZA和AZA）的物种管理计划。生物信息包括体重、窝卵数、饮食、IUCN红色名录中关于栖息地系统的数据可用性、分布范围、世代长度、迁徙模式、分布，以及来自人口统计学物种知识指数的生物数据、全球生物多样性信息设施（GBIF）记录的出现次数，以及来自鸟类10000基因组（B10K）项目、脊椎动物基因组计划（VGP）和GenBank的基因组数据。关于入侵物种的信息也是这个知识领域的一部分。内在价值类别指的是物种内在价值的两种衡量标准，即生态独特性和进化独特性。为了使这些知识领域具有可比性，我们按照《世界鸟类手册》和国际鸟类联盟（2019年第4版）的分类法对数据进行了标准化。这些数据能够进行广泛的分析，对科学家进行进一步研究以及对政策制定者、动物园和其他保护利益相关者做出未来的优先级决策都将是有用的。
