Data from: Numerous independent gains of daily torpor and hibernation across endotherms, linked with adaptation to diverse environments

CONTENTS OF THIS DATASET

1) time_calibrated_phylogeny.nwk: The phylogeny of 1,338 endotherm species that were included in our study.

2) dataset.csv: All raw data per species that we analysed in this study. This file is composed of the following columns:Species: the scientific name of the species.Common_name: the common name of the species.Class: the class to which the species belongs.Order: the order to which the species belongs.Family: the family to which the species belongs.Torpor: NO / Torpor / Hibernation, standing for lack of torpor, daily torpor, or prolonged torpor / hibernation, respectively.Max_longevity_years: maximum longevity in units of years.Migratory: no / yes.Body_mass_g: body mass in g units.BMR_Watt: basal metabolic rate in W units.Brain_size_g: brain mass in g units.Diet: carnivore / herbivore / omnivore.Fossoriality: nonfossorial / semifossorial / fossorial.Daily_activity: cathemeral / crepuscular / diurnal / nocturnal.Aquatic_affinity: very low / low / moderate / high.Range_size_km2: the range size in km² units.Mid_range_lat_dd: the latitude at the centre of the range in decimal degrees.Mid_range_lon_dd: the longitude at the centre of the range in decimal degrees.Mean_temp: the mean temperature at the centre of the range in °C units.SD_temp: the temperature seasonality at the centre of the range in °C units.Annual_precip: the annual precipitation at the centre of the range in kg ⋅ m^-2 ⋅ yr^-1 units.CV_precip: the precipitation seasonality at the centre of the range in kg ⋅ m^-2 units.NPP: the net primary productivity at the centre of the range in g C ⋅ m^-2 ⋅ yr^-1 units.Seasonal_torpor: NO / YES (whether torpor occurs in only a single season).Predictable_torpor: NO / YES (whether conspecifics tend to enter torpor in a similar manner).Hibernation_with_preparation: NO / YES (whether extensive pre-hibernation fattening occurs).Climate_zone: tropical / subtropical / temperate / polar (based on the centre of the range).Data sources and further information about these variables are available in our study.
