Cameras record fewer insect visitors but reveal similar plant-pollinator networks to visual observations
Abstract
This data was collected on plant-flower visitor interactions across gardens in Glasgow, Scotland from 1/6/23- 31/9/23. Specifically, the data was used to compare two methods of recording flower visits (observational vs cameras). The first data sheet (Community_data) shows plant-flower visitor interactions grouped together by each sampling site and month. The second data sheet (plant_level_data), details plant flower visitor records to the individual plant species present at each site, in each month.
