Cities are socio-ecological systems that filter and select species, thus establishing unique species assemblages and biotic interactions. Urban ecosystems can host richer wild bee communities than highly intensified agricultural areas, specifically in resource-rich urban green spaces such as allotment and family gardens. At the same time, urban beekeeping has boomed in many European cities, raising concerns that the fast addition of a large number of managed bees could deplete the existing floral resources, triggering competition between wild bees and honeybees. The data has been used to investigated the interplay between resource availability and the number of honeybees at local and landscape scales and how this relationship influences wild bee diversity.

This dataset contains the raw and processed data supporting the findings from the paper: "Low resource availability drives feeding niche partitioning between wild bees and honeybees in a European city".

The data contains:
1. Bee trait measurements at the species and individual-level of five functional traits.
2. The values of the feeding niche partitioning (functional dissimilarity to honeybees)
3. The predictors of resource availability and beekeeping intensity at local and landscape scales used in the modelling of the paper for the 23 experimental sites.
