Latest version published by Biodiversity Data Journal on 06 March 2024 Biodiversity Data Journal

The dataset includes all the published occurrence records of the geophilid species (Geophilidae s.l.) in the South-Eastern Alps, and many other records present in unpublished catalogs of scientific collections. For each record, information is integrated from all sources about: locality, date of collection, the taxonomic identifications, number of individuals, and available sequences of molecular markers. For all the records geographic coordinates of the locality were estimated anew when not originally provided, based on the information available, as well as the accuracy of the position. The dataset includes 3293 records referred to 39 species, obtained since the first half of the XIX century up to 2022; 52% of these records have been released publicly for the first time in this dataset.

Sampling Methods

This dataset is not based on a dedicated sampling effort. Instead, it includes data gathered from many available sources, namely scientific publications and catalogs of scientific collections. Most of the records were obtained through visual search in the soil and through pitfall traps.

Study Extent The study area covers the South-Eastern part of the European Alps. In detail, the study area includes the following "Sections" of the SOIUSA partition of the Alps (Marazzi 2005): Brescia and Garda Prealps, Southern Rhaetian Alps, Venetian Prealps, Dolomites, Carnic and Gailtal Alps, Julian Alps and Prealps, Slovene Prealps, Carinthian–Slovenian Alps. It also encompasses all the major marginal or isolated reliefs along the southern border. To account for the positional uncertainty of the records, we included in the dataset also the records whose estimated position falls within a 10 km marginal buffer.

Method step description:

  1. A thorough literature search was performed to obtain original records from scientific publications. Records were complemented by records from already digitized catalogs of scientific collections. Records were filtered to exclude duplicate records (e.g., records cited multiple times in the literature, or records available both from catalogs of collections and scientific publications). The dataset was structured following the Darwin Core standard.
