This dataset consists of a list of recorded insects from literature that have been recorded in non-crop plant species found during biannual qualitative surveys in and around pilot organic fields on the island of Mauritius, which started in 2017. To know on which plant species the insects were found, the plant species ID is found in the relational file (relatedresourceID), as well the data source. The full taxonomical information of the plant species in which insects were found is available in the non-crop flora checklist available at
https://www.gbif.org/dataset/6fd6f172-5877-4ebb-857f-2a7da6201d3e.
The flora monitoring of eleven fields or greenhouses scattered around the island, which have different crops, is part of an effort from Mauritius NGO Le Velo Vert (LVV)to mainstream organic agriculture. LVV wants to highlight the importance of correct plant identification and the uses of non-crop species to improve and support organic farming. LVV believes sharing data will increase transparency and help cooperation of local, regional and global stakeholders of different fields to improve perspectives and multidisciplinarity, much needed to face the increasing problems of declining biodiversity and resources, and a growing human population. This database creating effort has been funded by BID Africa Call 2017, grant BID-AF2017-SMA_0316 https://www.gbif.org/project/aRCxBBF1BYU2C0us62ea4/getting-the-plants-to-all-dissemination-of-information-from-the-collection-of-the-mauritius-herbarium.)

List of insects found in non-crop plants were extracted from a number of sources (Mamet & Williams, Rochecouste & Vaughan & Autrey). Taxonomy was updated using Global Names Resolver (https://resolver.globalnames.org/) and the GBIF backbone (https://www.gbif.org/tools/name-parser). The plant species where each insect species was found and the reference for the information is listed in a supporting file of this dataset.
