This deposit contains data set and analytic codes** (accompanied with a meta data) supporting"The effects of land-use change on semi-aquatic bugs (Gerromorpha, Hemiptera) in rainforest streams in Sabah, Malaysia". We investigated the impacts of land-use change on semi-aquatic bug (Gerromorpha, Hemiptera) communities in Sabah, Malaysia. Semi-aquatic bugs were collected from streams in old-growth forest, logged forest, andoil palm withand without riparian buffer strips. A range of environmental parameters were also collectedto represent environmental conditions (associated with land-use change). Environmental data were collected at catchment, riparian, and stream scales, and were used separately for the assessments of their effects on the bugs. We looked at the effects on the abundance, biomass, species richness, and community composition of semi-aquatic bugs. We also assessed the effects on the proportion of juveniles, winged individuals,and female Ptilomera sp. (a morphospecies with clear sexual dimorphism in this study).
