Samples from 48 and 92 populations of two plant species belonging to different angiosperm families (the spurge Euphorbia seguieriana from Euphorbiaceae and the grass Stipa capillata from Poaceae, respectively) and samples from 56, 37, and 60 populations of three arthropod species from different insect orders (the grasshoppers Omocestus petraeus and Stenobothrus nigromaculatus and the ant Plagiolepis taurica, respectively) were included in this study. All samples were collected over the years 2013–2016 in mainly the western parts of the Eurasian steppes (Fig. 2A, Supplementary Data 1). The sampled species are all typical elements of the Eurasian steppe biome, and represent different reproductive, life-history, and dispersal strategies. Collecting permits are given in Kirschner et al.19.
