  1. We show taxonomic order, family and scientific name, conservation status as a superscript, common name, individual mass as used in the calculations, main diet, abundance of photo-trapped animals (N), corrected abundance of photo-trapped animals (Ncorr), species relative abundance (SRA), estimated density of individuals (ind km−2) and estimated biomass (kg km−2) as evaluated using corrected abundances. Conservation status according to Torres and Tamburini (2018): EN endangered, VU vulnerable, NT near threatened and LC least concern. Main diet: HER herbivore, OMN omnivore, INS insectivore, CAR carnivore
