A species diversity dataset of beetles by three passive acquisition methods in Tei Tong Tsai (Hong Kong).

ABSTRACT: We based the dataset in this paper on the beetle collection from the sample site of Tei Tong Tsai (Hong Kong) from 1^st May to 28^th May 2019, a period of high insect diversity. A total of 16,270 beetles (photographed in 318 images) from 478 species belonging to 39 families were collected. The dataset consists of the following components: The original photo of the whole sample obtained at each site with each collection method, the morphological species identification chart, a statistical table describing the species and numbers of beetles collected on different dates at different sites using three passive acquisition methods, and a statistical table describing the longitude, latitude, and altitude information of each sampling point. We aimed to provide a database for th
