摘要：Here, we present the largest, global dataset of Lepidopteran traits, focusing initially on butterfies (ca . 12,500 species records) . These traits are derived from feld guides, taxonomic treatments, and other literature resources . We present traits on wing size, phenology,voltinism, diapause/overwintering stage, hostplant associations, and habitat afnities (canopy, edge, moisture, and disturbance) . This dataset will facilitate comparative research on butterfy ecology and evolution and our goal is to inspire future research collaboration and the continued development of this dataset .
