Description

The dataset provides access to an Excel file (.xlsx) with a list of 128 fish species (rows), and a list of 23 bio-ecological traits grouped into 5 categories (columns). The characterization of the bio-ecological traits by species was done with information from primary literature, free access internet data repositories, and databases of previous institutional projects. In this way, a matrix of bio-ecological attributes of the fish community was assembled. Aspects related with the study area, the sampling design, the collection methodology, the species inventory, and the taxonomic composition of the ichthyofauna are described in Paz-Ríos et al. (2021).

Notes

The present resource forms part of the first author's postdoctoral project titled "Influencia de la variabilidad hidrográfica temporal de Laguna de Términos en los atributos funcionales de la comunidad de peces ", carried out in the "Laboratorio de Oceanografía Biológica y Pesquerías" of the EPOMEX research institute of the "Universidad Autónoma de Campeche (UAC)". The project is financed by a CONAHCYT postdoctoral scholarship to CEPR.
