# Title of Dataset: Bats are sentinels for invasive pest surveillance based on DNA metabarcoding
---
The dietary composition of 258 and 257 bats were determined by DNA metacoding using LCO primer and EPP primer respectively. The OTU representative sequence information of each pair of primers corresponds to the ID in the OTU table.


## Description of the Data and file structure

The table shows the OTU abundance of the corresponding food composition of each sample. The first column is the OTU number information corresponding to the species, and the other columns are the abundance (sequence number) of each OTU corresponding to each sample. The OTU ID is the OTU number. The last column is the name of the corresponding field, boundary, phyla, class, order, family, genus and species. The single letter before the taxonomic name is the acronym of the classification grade, with "__" separate. In the taxonomic database, some intermediate levels in the taxonomic pedigree have no scientific name, and are marked with norank. After taxonomic comparison, according to the screening of confidence threshold, some classification pedigrees are lower than the confidence threshold, and no classification information is obtained. Unclassified is used as the mark of no classification information during statistics. SUM is listed as the sum of the species abundance in all samples.
