The aim of the project was to quantify whether linear infrastructure habitats (road verges and power-line corridors) support biodiversity by assessing the influence of the area of these habitats in the landscape, their contribution to landscape connectivity and population persistence. The linked data was collected by surveying butterflies, bumblebees, and vascular plants in five types of prevalent grasslands (pastures, road verges along small gravel roads, road verges along big paved roads, power line corridors, and field borders). These grasslands were embedded in 32 landscapes with area 4 km² each, that differed in the area of linear infrastructure habitats (road verges and power line corridors) and semi-natural grasslands of high nature value, while other land-use types were kept constant. The landscapes were dominated by forest. Within each grassland habitat, the surveyor established a 200 m transect and then identified all butterflies and bumblebees along it. For plants, a 1 x 1 m quadrat was established at the centre of a 50 m section in each transect, i.e. each transect had four plots in which all plant species were identified. Denna studie är en del av projektet GINFRA – green rights-of-way infrastructure for biodiversity and ecosystem services. Projektets huvudsyfte var att kvantifiera om linjära infrastrukturmiljöer (vägkanter och kraftledningsgator) bidrar till mångfalden av växter och insekter i olika rumsliga skalor. Detta gjordes genom att uppskatta hur linjära infrastrukturmiljöers mängd i landskapet bidrar till mångfalden samt hur mycket de bidrar till landskapets konnektivitet. Datan samlades genom att inventera dagfjärilar, humlor, och växter i fem typer av gräsmarker (betesmarker, vägrenar längs enskilda vägar, vägrenar längs allmänna vägar, kraftledningsgator, och åkerkanter). Alla dessa habitat typer fanns inom 32 landskap med area 4 km2 som skilde sig i areal av linjära infrastrukturmiljöer (vägrenar och kraftledningsgator) och ängs-och betesmarker. Arealen av andra markanvändningar var konstanta mellan landskap och alla landskap var skogsdominerade.

For plants, a 1 x 1 m quadrat was established at the centre of a 50 m section in each transect, i.e. each transect had four plots in which all plant species were identified. The dataset consists of the following files: 1. Transect_coordinates: this file contains the coordinates for the beginning, end, and centroid of each transect. The explanation for each column in this file is as follows: Landscape: corresponds to the code of each 2 × 2 km landscape in which the transects are embedded. Transect_type: The name of the grassland habitat type is given. All landscapes contained at least three of the habitats: pastures, road verges along small gravel roads and road verges along big paved roads. The other two habitats, power line corridors and field borders, were present in only some of the landscapes. Power line corridors were present in half (i.e. 16) of the landscapes due to the design of the study. Start_X: Gives the x-coordinate for the start of the transect. Start_Y: Gives the y-coordinate for the start of the transect. End_X: Gives the x-coordinate for the end of the transect. End_Y: Gives the y-coordinate for the start of the transect. Centroid_X: Gives the x-coordinate for the centroid of the transect. This was calculated with ArcMap 10.7 using the start and end coordinates stated above. Centroid_Y: Gives the y-coordinate for the centroid of the transect. This was calculated with ArcMap 10.7 using the start and end coordinates stated above. All coordinates use the Swedish National reference frame, SWEREF99. 2. Database_alpha_diversity: This file contains the necessary information for the analysis exploring whether species richness of butterflies, bumblebees, and vascular plants differs among the grassland habitat types, and whether such differences relate to the area of linear infrastructure habitats in the surrounding landscape and/or on the area of semi-natural pastures of high nature value. Landscape: corresponds to the code of each 2 × 2 km landscape in which the transects are embedded. Transect_type: The name of the grassland habitat type is given. All landscapes contained at least three of the habitats: pastures, road verges along small gravel roads and road verges along big paved roads.

Water: Gives the total area of water surfaces in square kilometres within the corresponding 2 × 2 km landscape. PL: Stands for PowerLine.

The transects were placed in five types of grassland habitat: pastures, road verges along small and big roads, powerline corridors, and field borders. The person collecting the data walked slowly along the transect and counted allday-flying butterflies within a 5 m square (2.5 m to each side and 5 m in front of the observer). In contrast, the bumblebees were counted 1 m to each side and 1 m in front of the observer. For the plant inventory, four quadratic sampling plots were placed along the same transects (one plot for each 50 m segment). The occurrence of all vascular plant species within the plots was recorded based on a predefined list of 169 species.All day-flying butterfly individuals (including members of the Zygaenidae family) and bumblebees were counted and identified to species level within several transects of 200 m length.

Individer av dagfjärilar (fjärilar och bastardsvärmare) och humlor räknades och identifierades till artnivån längs flera 200 m lång transketer som placerades i fem olika typer av gräsmarkshabitat: betesmark, vägrenar längs enskilda och allmänna vägar, kraftledningsgator, och åkerkanter. Personen som inventerade gick långsamt längs transekten och räknade alla dagfjärilar som befann sig inom en 5 m ruta (2.5 m åt varje sida och 5 m framför observatören). Humlorna räknades istället inom en 1 m åt varje sida och 1 m framför observatören. För inventeringen av kärlväxter placerades ut 4 rutor av 1 m2 area längs samma transekter (en ruta varje 50 m). Förekomsten av alla växtarter (utifrån en fördefinierad lista med 169 arter) inom rutan noterades.Individer av dagfjärilar (fjärilar och bastardsvärmare) och humlor räknades och identifierades till artnivån längs flera 200 m lång transketer som placerades i fem olika typer av gräsmarkshabitat: betesmark, vägrenar längs enskilda och allmänna vägar, kraftledningsgator, och åkerkanter.
