生物入侵是对本地生物多样性的主要威胁之一。对于一个物种来说,要成为入侵物种,它必须被人类自愿或非自愿地引入非本地栖息地。哺乳动物是最早被引入世界范围用于猎物、肉类和劳动力的类群之一,但引入新热带地区的物种数量仍然未知。在此数据集中,我们提供了哺乳动物物种的出现和丰度数据,这些哺乳动物物种(1)跨越了地理障碍,(2)由人类自愿或非自愿引入新热带地区。我们的数据集由 73,738 个外来哺乳动物物种的历史和当前地理参考记录组成,其中约 96% 对应于属于 8 个目和 26 个科的 77 个物种的出现数据。数据覆盖新热带地区26个大陆国家,从墨西哥及其边境地区(美国东南部佛罗里达州南部和佛罗里达中部沿海地区)到阿根廷、巴拉圭、智利和乌拉圭,以及加勒比岛屿的13个国家。我们的数据集还包括新热带地区特定地区被视为外来物种的新热带物种(例如 Callithrixsp.、Myocastor coypus、Nasua nasua)。就记录而言,数量最多的物种来自Bossp。 (n= 37,782)、野猪 (n= 6,730) 和犬 (n= 10,084); 17 个物种仅由一项记录代表(例如,Syncerus caffer、Cervus timorensis、Cervus unicolor、Canis latrans)。数据集中灵长类动物的物种数量最多(n = 20 种),部分原因是 Callithrix 属的分类鉴定存在不确定性,其中包括 Callithrix aurita、Callithrix flaviceps、Callithrix geoffroyi、Callithrix jacchus、Callithrix kuhlii、Callithrix penicillata 及其杂交种。这个独特的数据集将成为入侵风险评估、生物多样性重新分配和保护相关研究的宝贵信息来源。没有版权限制。在出版物中使用数据时,请引用此数据论文。我们还要求研究人员和教师告知我们他们如何使用这些数据。
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal‐central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g.,Callithrixsp.,Myocastor coypus,Nasua nasua)considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are fromBossp. (n= 37,782),Sus scrofa(n= 6,730), andCanis familiaris(n= 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n= 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the generaCallithrix,which includes the speciesCallithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation‐related research. There are no copyright restrictions.
