Abstract

Datasets and script associated with S. B. Correa et al. 2025. Floodplain forests drive fruit-eating fish diversity at the Amazon Basin scale. File 1 (amazonfish_dist.csv) is a Comma-delimited file that includes occurrences of fruit-eating fish species per subbasin. File 2 (sp_frug_all.csv) is a Comma-delimited file that includes the scientific names of 29 fruit-eating fish species. File 3 (sp_frug_serrasal.csv) is a Comma-delimited file that includes the scientific names of 12 fruit-eating fish species of the family Serrasalmidae. File 4 (veget_data.csv) is a Comma delimited file that includes tree species richness per subbasin. File 5 (Script_analyses_plots_tables.docx) is a Microsoft Word file that includes R script for analyses, plots and tables included in the article.
