說明
The Squirrels of South Asia Database is a collection of occurrence records of all squirrel species (34 specices) that occur in South Asia. Complete occurrence data has been collected for species whose range extends out of South Asia (eg. into Southeast Asia). The data are collated from traditional sources (museums, literature, primary field records), citizen science records, and social media records (14 platforms). Only data that are not already funnelled/present to GBIF are included in this upload. Years covered: 1766 - 2022. Details of the database creation are here: The database is built and curated by the Sciurid Lab at IISER Tirupati (https://sciuridlab.in)

地理涵蓋範圍
We collected comprehensive occurrence records across the entire geographic ranges of the 34 target species. Species range across South Asian (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, and Maldives) and some (16 species) ranges that extend eastward into Central Asia or East and Southeast Asia. One species of palm squirrel (Funambulus pennantii) has been introduced to the Middle-east and Australia, well outside of its native geographic range. When squirrel species in this database were found to occur in countries outside of South Asia (e.g. Central/East/Southeast Asia), their occurrence data were collected across all countries in their geographic ranges.

計畫資料
The Squirrels of South Asia database compiles information on squirrel occurrence in the region. The database includes 34 squirrel species, representing 14% of global diversity. The database collects data from various sources such as museums, literature, citizen science, and social media. It covers the entire range of the target species and spans from the early 1800s to May 2023. By consolidating information, the database enhances our understanding of squirrel distribution, population dynamics, and conservation needs in South Asia.

取樣方法
We collected data from three major sources. Traditional data sources included museum data, information from the literature and primary field data. The second source of data included records from citizen science platforms (5 platforms), and the third source of data encompassed social media platforms (14 sources). A pipeline was created for the data collection (Figure 1), and all volunteers on the project were trained to follow this in order to maintain consistency in data collection. For all data records, irrespective of source, we noted essential information like species name, location, date/year of observation, and observer/author. Media data were examined/downloaded when available. In addition to this, all other relevant data associated with each record were noted (e.g. behaviour, ecological information, etc.).
