Compilation of historical zooplankton occurrence records for lakes and ponds across western North America (see Appendix 1 in Supplementary Material for details of zooplankton data handling and detailed references). FISH_STOCKING refers to introduced fish status (present/absent) at time of sampling (see Appendix 3 for details/data sources). RECENT_DATE, RECENT_REF, RESEARCH_GROUP, and #_YEARS_SAMPLED refer to the most recent confirmed zooplankton sampling date, abbreviated zooplankton sampling reference, research group or taxonomist, and number of sampling years integrated for species occurrence estimates, respectively (see Appendix 5 for further details).
