Dataset of pollinator functional traits and interaction networks in neotropical mangroves: effects of patch size and surrounding land use

<p>This&nbsp;is the dataset of the manuscript entitled &quot;Pollinator functional traits and interaction networks in neotropical mangroves: effects of patch size and surrounding land use&quot;, which was submitted for publication. The dataset include the functional traits&nbsp;of 162 insect pollinator species and 315&nbsp;interactions with&nbsp;the mangrove species <em>Avicennia germinans, Conocarpus erectus, Laguncularia racemosa,</em> and <em>Rhizophora</em> <em>mangle</em>. The manuscript evaluates the effects of mangrove patch size and surrounding land use on pollinator functional diversity and&nbsp;plant-pollinator interactions in&nbsp;seven mangrove patches from the Colombian Caribbean region.&nbsp;Data variables are&nbsp;pollinator order, family, species,&nbsp;functional traits (pollinator guilds, body size, feeding preference, sociality, and nesting site) and frequency, interacting mangrove species, mangrove patch&nbsp;name,&nbsp;coordinates and&nbsp;size (ha),&nbsp;surrounding land use areas (urban areas, croplands, conserved&nbsp;dry forest, degraded vegetation areas, beach and water) and landscape diversity (Shannon H&#39;).</p>
