3. Date published or finalized for release: 2021-11-30

4. Date of data collection: 2019-08-15 to 2020-10-12

5. Geographic location of data collection (where was data collected?): UMN's Rosemount Research and Outreach Center, specifically in Lone Rock Woods

6. Information about funding sources that supported the collection of the data: Minnesota Invasive Terrestrial Plant and Pest Center

7. Overview of the data (abstract): The data describe terrestrial gastropod sampling from an experiment examining whether co-grazing goats with waterfowl can reduce the number of intermediate hosts of a potentially deadly parasite, Parelaphostrongylus tenuis. Data were collected during two years and at two timepoints at UMN's Rosemount Research and Outreach Center, specifically in Lone Rock Woods. Data may be useful for others doing an inventory of terrestrial gastropod species in Minnesota. It is being released in conjunction with a manuscript currently in revision with EcoHealth.

1. Number of variables:
	11

2. Number of cases/rows: 297

3. Missing data codes: 

4. Variable List

Species- Which species of gastropod? There are two typos that must be replaced before 
analysis: ÒGastrocopa holzingeriÓ must be changed to ÒGastrocopta holzingeriÓ and ÒHeliodiscus 
shimekiÓ must be changed to ÒHelicodiscus shimekiÓ

Site- All of the data is for one site at the University of MinnesotaÕs Rosemount Research and 
Outreach Center, specifically in Lone Rock Woods.

Year- The year the data was collected.  The experiment was repeated twice, once in 2019 and 
once in 2020.

Timing- ÒbeforeÓ data was collected before any livestock were added to the site. ÒafterÓ data 
were collected once all livestock were removed from the site.

Treatment- ÒcontrolÓ no addition of livestock. ÒgoatÓ browsed by goats for the control of the 
invasive shrub Rhamnus cathartica. ÒbirdÓ co-grazed by waterfowl and goats.

Transect- The transect where the data were collected 

Quadrat- The quadrat where the data were collected

Provenance- Whether the gastropod species is ÒnativeÓ or ÒexoticÓ

Number- The number of individuals of that gastropod species that were counted.

Host.c- Whether the gastropod species is an intermediate host for Parelaphostrongylus tenuis, 
meningeal or brain worm, using a conservative definition that does not include Cochlicopa 
lubricella and Strobilops aeneus as intermediate hosts

Host.alt- Whether the gastropod species is an intermediate host for Parelaphostrongylus tenuis, 
meningeal or brain worm, using a more liberal definition that includes Cochlicopa lubricella and 
Strobilops aeneus as intermediate hosts
