Dataset supporting: Mapping the trophic ecology of the invasive American blue crab Callinectes sapidus across native and invaded ecosystems (Scoping Review)

This dataset contains the extracted and curated data from 285 peer-reviewed studies included in a global scoping review of the trophic ecology of the invasive blue crab Callinectes sapidus across native and invaded ecosystems. Variables include geographic region, invasion status (native vs invaded), habitat type, methodological approach (e.g., gut content analysis, stable isotopes), reported trophic interactions, prey functional categories, and trait-based classifications. The dataset supports the analyses presented in the associated manuscript published in Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science.
