I was wondering if anyone could suggest a data archiving equivalent to GenBank or TreeBASE for the storage of different types of behavioral data (e.g., activity budgets, social networks, diet, track logs); both as a source for comparative data, but also as means of storing data for the long term after publication. Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Jan

I'm also not aware of such a database, but it strikes me as a great discussion point for behavioural ecology conferences. I know that journals such as Behavioral Ecology recommend Dryad. Maybe you could raise it as a symposium/ workshop topic for next year's ABS or ISBE conferences. Even just using existing data repositories, but having an identifier for behavioural data could be a great step forward.
That sounds like an interesting idea; I haven't been to the ABS or ISBE conferences but have been meaning to go, so perhaps this a nice opportunity to organize a data repository discussion. Thanks for the ideas!
