Dung beetle community data were collected from August 2018 – March 2023 on three ranches; Buck Island Ranch, Durando Ranch and Longino Ranch in Florida, USA. Traps were baited with either chicken feet (trap type c), or dung in balls wrapped in muslin (trap type b) or dung placed directly on a pitfall trap (trap type a). Sample sites that had greater than 20% tree canopy cover were classed as 'closed' and 'open' if in open pasture or if the sample site had less than 20% tree canopy cover. 

Data are presented raw, with no preprocessing.
