This data publication originated as part of developing a biodiversity-related knowledge hub on COVID-19 via COVID19-TAF - Communities Taking Action, a community-rooted initiative raised jointly by the Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilitaties (CETAF) and Distributed Systems of Scientific Collections (DiSSCo). This archive contains the biodiversity datasets of interest identified in period 14 April-21 May 2020 through COVID19-TAF activities and subsequently indexed by Global Biotic Interactions (GloBI). GloBI provides open access to finding species interaction data (e.g., predator-prey, pollinator-plant, virus-host, parasite-host) by combining existing open datasets using open source software. These identified datasets (see references and reviews below) add to a growing collection of open species interaction datasets already indexed by GloBI. So, this data publication only includes a small subset of indexed datasets and include only datasets that were added as a direct consequence of COVID19-TAF activities of the biodiversity-related knowledge hub working group. If you have questions or comments about this publication, please open an issue at https://github.com/ParasiteTracker/tpt-reporting or contact the authors by email. Funding: The creation of this archive was made possible in part by reporting software developed as part of the National Science Foundation award "Collaborative Research: Digitization TCN: Digitizing collections to trace parasite-host associations and predict the spread of vector-borne disease," Award numbers DBI:1901932 and DBI:1901926 .
