We compiled a database of firefly species records from the Atlantic Forest hotspot in Brazil and made it available at GBIF. Data were gathered from literature and from several key entomological collections, including: Coleção entomológica Prof. José Alfredo Pinheiro Dutra (DZRJ/UFRJ) and Coleção do Laboratório de Ecologia de Insetos from Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (CLEI/UFRJ); Coleção Entomológica do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz (CEIOC); Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo (MZSP); Coleção Entomológica Pe. Jesus Santiago Moure from Universidade Federal do Paraná (DZUP/UFPR); and Coleção Entomológica from Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE). This database represents the largest contribution to a public repository of recorded occurrences from Neotropical fireflies.
This dataset shows the occurrence and abundance of firefly species in the Atlantic Forest hotspot. Firefly species endemic to this biome are also present and considered in the study. These data can assist scientific and societal needs, by supporting future research projects and conservation decision-making.
我们汇编了巴西大西洋森林热点地区萤火虫物种记录的数据库,并将其在全球生物多样性信息网络(GBIF)上公开。数据收集自文献以及几个关键的昆虫学收藏,包括:里约热内卢联邦大学的若泽·阿尔弗雷多·皮涅罗·杜特拉教授昆虫收藏(DZRJ/UFRJ)和昆虫生态学实验室收藏(CLEI/UFRJ);奥斯瓦尔多·克鲁兹研究所昆虫收藏(CEIOC);圣保罗大学动物学博物馆(MZSP);巴拉那联邦大学的佩德罗·热苏斯·圣地亚哥·穆雷昆虫收藏(DZUP/UFPR);以及伯南布哥联邦农村大学昆虫收藏(UFRPE)。该数据库是对新热带萤火虫记录出现情况的公共存储库的最大贡献。
该数据集显示了大西洋森林热点地区萤火虫物种的出现情况和丰度。该生物群落特有的萤火虫物种也存在于研究中并被考虑在内。这些数据可以通过支持未来的研究项目和保护决策来满足科学和社会需求。
