title: Data from: Spatial variability in a plant-pollinator community across a continuous habitat: high heterogeneity in the face of apparent uniformity

description: Large-scale spatial variability in plant-pollinator communities (e.g.,
 along geographic gradients, across different landscapes) is relatively
 well understood. However, we know much less about how these communities
 vary at small scales within a uniform landscape. Plants are sessile and
 highly sensitive to microhabitat conditions, whereas pollinators are
 highly mobile and, for the most part, display generalist feeding habits.
 Therefore, we expect plants to show greater spatial variability than
 pollinators. We analysed the spatial heterogeneity of a community of
 flowering plants and their pollinators in 40 plots across a 40-Km2 area
 within an uninterrupted Mediterranean scrubland. We recorded 3577
 pollinator visits to 49 plant species. The pollinator community (170
 species) was strongly dominated by honey bees (71.8% of the visits
 recorded). Flower and pollinator communities showed similar
 beta-diversity, indicating that spatial variability was similar in the two
 groups. We used path analysis to establish the direct and indirect effects
 of flower community distribution and honey bee visitation rate (a measure
 of the use of floral resources by this species) on the spatial
 distribution of the pollinator community. Wild pollinator abundance was
 positively related to flower abundance. Wild pollinator visitation rate
 was negatively related to flower abundance, suggesting that floral
 resources were not limiting. Pollinator and flower richness were
 positively related. Pollinator species composition was weakly related to
 flower species composition, reflecting the generalist nature of
 flower-pollinator interactions and the opportunistic nature of pollinator
 flower choices. Honey bee visitation rate did not affect the distribution
 of the wild pollinator community. Overall, we show that, in spite of the
 apparent physiognomic uniformity, both flowers and pollinators display
 high levels of heterogeneity, resulting in a mosaic of idiosyncratic local
 communities. Our results provide a measure of the background of intrinsic
 heterogeneity within a uniform habitat, with potential consequences on
 low-scale ecosystem function and microevolutionary patterns.

title: Data from: Transitions in smartphone addiction proneness among children: the effect of gender and use patterns

description: Objectives This study assessed the incidence of transitions in smartphone
 addiction proneness (SAP) among children and examined the effects of
 gender, use patterns (social networking sites (SNSs) use and smartphone
 gaming) and depression on smartphone addiction transitions.Methods A
 representative sample of 2,155 children from Taipei completed longitudinal
 surveys in both 2015 (5th grade) and 2016 (6th grade). Latent transition
 analysis (LTA) was used to characterize transitions in SAP and to examine
 the effects of use patterns and depression on SAP transitions among boys
 and girls. Results LTA identified four latent statuses of SAP: about half
 of the children were in non-SAP status, one-fifth were in tolerance
 status, one-sixth were in withdrawal status, and one-seventh were in
 high-SAP status. Both boys and girls had a higher prevalence of high-SAP
 and tolerance in 6th grade than in 5th grade, whereas in both grades boys
 had a higher prevalence of high-SAP and withdrawal, and girls had a higher
 prevalence of non-SAP and tolerance. Controlling for parents’ education,
 family structure, and household income, higher use of SNSs by children,
 increasing use of mobile gaming and higher level of depression were
 individually associated with increased odds of being in one of the three
 SAP statuses other than non-SAP. When all three covariates were jointly
 entered into the model, usage of SNSs and depression remained significant
 predictors. Conclusion Both boys and girls tended to transition to
 tolerance or high-SAP statuses, while children’s depression and their
 usage of SNSs increased the risk of smartphone addiction.

title: Data from: Bacteria from natural populations transfer plasmids mostly towards their kin

description: Plasmids play a key role in microbial ecology and evolution, yet the
 determinants of plasmid transfer rates are poorly understood.
 Particularly, interactions between donor hosts and potential recipients
 are understudied. Here we investigate the importance of genetic similarity
 between naturally co-occurring Escherichia coli isolates in plasmid
 transfer. We uncover extensive variability, spanning over five orders of
 magnitude, in the ability of isolates to donate and receive two different
 plasmids, R1 and RP4. Overall, transfer is strongly biased towards
 clone-mates, but not correlated to genetic distance when donors and
 recipients are not clone-mates. Transfer is limited by the presence of a
 functional restriction-modification system in recipients, suggesting
 sharing of strain-specific defence systems contributes to bias towards
 kin. Such restriction of transfer to kin sets the stage for longer-term
 coevolutionary interactions leading to mutualism between plasmids and
 bacterial hosts in natural communities.

title: Data from: Variable sea-ice conditions influence trophic dynamics in an Arctic community of marine top predators

description: Sea‐ice coverage is a key abiotic driver of annual environmental
 conditions in Arctic marine ecosystems and could be a major factor
 affecting seabird trophic dynamics. Using stable isotope ratios of carbon
 (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) in eggs of thick‐billed murres (Uria lomvia),
 northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis), glaucous gulls (Larus hyperboreus),
 and black‐legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla), we investigated the
 trophic ecology of prebreeding seabirds nesting at Prince Leopold Island,
 Nunavut, and its relationship with sea‐ice conditions. The seabird
 community of Prince Leopold Island had a broader isotopic niche during
 lower sea‐ice conditions, thus having a more divergent diet, while the
 opposite was observed during years with more extensive sea‐ice conditions.
 Species' trophic position was influenced by sea ice; in years of
 lower sea‐ice concentration, gulls and kittiwakes foraged at higher
 trophic levels while the opposite was observed for murres and fulmars. For
 murres and fulmars over a longer time series, there was no evidence of the
 effect of sea‐ice concentration on species' isotopic niche. Results
 suggest a high degree of adaptation in populations of high Arctic species
 that cope with harsh and unpredictable conditions. Such different
 responses of the community isotopic niche also show that the effect of
 variable sea‐ice conditions, despite being subtle at the species level,
 might have larger implications when considering the trophic ecology of the
 larger seabird community. Species‐specific responses in foraging patterns,
 in particular trophic position in relation to sea ice, are critical to
 understanding effects of ecosystem change predicted for a changing
 climate.

title: Data from: Worth the reward? An experimental assessment of risk-taking behavior along a life history gradient

description: Life history theory predicts that species with faster life history
 strategies should be willing to risk their survival more to acquire
 resources than those with slower life history strategies. Foraging can be
 a risky behavior and animals generally face a tradeoff between food
 consumption and predation risk. We predicted that the degree to which
 animals invest in current vs. future reproduction (i.e., life history
 strategy) would determine how they approach this tradeoff. We manipulated
 food abundance in wetlands to assess whether life history theory could
 explain risk taking among females of five duck species with respect to
 foraging. We found evidence consistent with our prediction based on life
 history theory; species with a faster life history strategy were willing
 to engage in riskier behavior, by feeding more intensively, for a greater
 food reward. Females from species with faster life history strategies
 devoted 25 % more time to feeding when in high food density treatment
 plots vs. control plots. The percentage of time that females from species
 with slower life history strategies devoted to feeding was not affected by
 food density. These findings contribute to our understanding of life
 history theory and represent a possible mechanism to explain differences
 in life history strategies among species.

title: Data from: Trophic structure modulates community rescue following acidification

description: Community rescue occurs when a community that experiences a lethal stress
 persists only through the spread of rare types, either genotypes or
 species, resistant to the stress. Rescue interacts with trophic structure
 because a physical stress experienced by a focal assemblage within the
 community may also be experienced by its predators and prey. In general,
 trophic structure will facilitate rescue only when a stress has a less
 severe effect on a focal assemblage than on its predators. In other
 circumstances, when stress affects prey or has only a weak effect on
 predators, trophic structure is likely to hamper rescue. We exposed a
 community of phytoplankton and zooplankton derived from a natural lake to
 acidification in outdoor mesocosms large enough to support trophically
 complex communities. Rescue of the phytoplankton from severe acidification
 was facilitated by prior exposure to sublethal stress, confirming previous
 results from microcosm experiments. Even communities that have previously
 been less highly stressed were eventually rescued, however, probably
 because their zooplankton predators were more sensitive to acidification
 and became extinct. Our experiment shows how community rescue following
 severe stress is modulated by the differential effect of the stress
 relative to trophic level.

title: Data from: Moth assemblages in Costa Rica rain forest mirror small‐scale topographic heterogeneity

description: In many tropical lowland rainforests, topographic variation increases
 environmental heterogeneity thus contributing to the extraordinary
 biodiversity of tropical lowland forests. While a growing number of
 studies have addressed effects of topographic differences on tropical
 insect communities at regional scales (e.g., along extensive elevational
 gradients), surprisingly little is known about topographic effects at
 smaller spatial scales. The present study investigates moth assemblages in
 a topographically heterogeneous lowland rainforest landscape, at distances
 of less than a few hundred meters, in the Golfo Dulce region (SW Costa
 Rica). Three moth lineages – Erebidae-Arctiinae (tiger and lichen moths),
 the bombycoid-complex, and Geometridae (inchworm moths) – were examined by
 means of automatic light traps in three different forest types: creek
 forest, slope forest, and ridge forest. Altogether, 6543 individuals of
 419 species were observed. Moth assemblages differed significantly between
 the three forest types regarding to species richness, total abundance and
 species composition. Moth richness and abundance increased more than
 four-fold and eight-fold from creek over slope to ridge forest sites. All
 three taxonomic units showed identical biodiversity patterns,
 notwithstanding their strong differences in multiple eco-morphological
 traits. An indicator species analysis revealed that most species
 identified as characteristic were associated with either the ridge forest
 alone, or with ridge plus slope forests, but very few with the creek
 forest. Despite their mobility, local moth assemblages are highly
 differentially filtered from the same regional species pool. Hence,
 variation in environmental factors significantly affects assemblages of
 tropical moth species at small spatial scales.

title: Data from: Genomic signatures of sympatric speciation with historical and contemporary gene flow in a tropical anthozoan (Hexacorallia: Actiniaria)

description: Sympatric diversification is increasingly thought to have played an
 important role in the evolution of biodiversity around the globe. However,
 an in situ sympatric origin for co-distributed taxa is difficult to
 demonstrate empirically because different evolutionary processes can lead
 to similar biogeographic outcomes- especially in ecosystems that can
 readily facilitate secondary contact due to a lack of hard barriers to
 dispersal. Here we use a genomic (ddRADseq), model-based approach to
 delimit a species complex of tropical sea anemones that are co-distributed
 on coral reefs throughout the Tropical Western Atlantic. We use coalescent
 simulations in fastsimcoal2 to test competing diversification scenarios
 that span the allopatric-sympatric continuum. We recover support that the
 corkscrew sea anemone Bartholomea annulata (Le Sueur, 1817) is a cryptic
 species complex, co-distributed throughout its range. Simulation and model
 selection analyses suggest these lineages arose in the face of historical
 and contemporary gene flow, supporting a sympatric origin, but an
 alternative secondary contact model also receives appreciable model
 support. Leveraging the genome of Exaiptasia diaphana we identify five
 loci under divergent selection between cryptic B. annulata lineages that
 fall within mRNA transcripts or CDS regions. Our study provides a rare
 empirical, genomic example of sympatric speciation in a tropical
 anthozoan. Finally, these data represent the first range-wide molecular
 study of any tropical sea anemone, underscoring that anemone diversity is
 under described in the tropics, and highlighting the need for additional
 systematic studies into these ecologically and economically important
 species.

title: Data from: Acoustic community structure and seasonal turnover in tropical South Asian birds

description: Birds produce diverse acoustic signals, with coexisting species occupying
 distinct ‘acoustic niches’ to minimize masking, resulting in
 overdispersion within acoustic space. In tropical regions of the world, an
 influx of migrants from temperate regions occurs during winter. The
 effects of these migrants on acoustic community structure and dynamics
 remain unstudied. Here, I show that in a tropical dry forest bird
 community occurring within an urban area in India, the influx of winter
 migrants is accompanied by a change in species composition of the acoustic
 community. However, in spite of this, the acoustic community remains
 overdispersed in acoustic niche space. The winter community of vocal birds
 at this study site additionally exhibits lower energy in the 4-7KHz
 frequency bands (consistent with species singing less continuously), as
 well as lower phylogenetic diversity. My data are thus indicative of
 seasonal turnover in acoustic communities, but suggest that acoustic
 niches and community structure are stable across seasons. Migrants occupy
 similar regions of acoustic space as residents, and are relatively closely
 related to some of these species. Their arrival therefore leads to greater
 phylogenetic clustering in the winter, and thus lower phylogenetic
 diversity, although the acoustic community remains overdispersed. Studying
 seasonal dynamics of acoustic communities thus provides valuable insight
 into assembly processes, as well as a potential framework for long-term
 monitoring of urban ecosystems.
