Carabid morphological traits

Description

Average body measures of 120 Carabid species occuring in the Netherlands.

Format

A data frame containing following columns:

  • name_correct = species name

  • source_measurement = researcher who performed measurement;

  • body_length = body length in mm;

  • antenna_length = antenna length in mm;

  • metafemur_length = length metafemur in mm;

  • eyewidth_corr = eye width in mm;

  • note = note;

  • resid_femur = residual femur length in mm (i.e. residual from linear model in which femur length is explained by body length);

  • resid_eye = residual eye length in mm (i.e. residual from linear model in which eye length is explained by body length)

  • resid_antenna = residual antenna length in mm (i.e. residual from linear model in which antenna length is explained by body length)
