The temperature preference/affinity data was obtained from global compilations made available by Cheung et al. (2013) and in FishBase (Froese and Pauly, 2022). In both compilations, thermal preference were derived from considerations about species distribution ranges and sea surface temperature maps (e.g. Cheung et al., 2013 supplementary material). Each species considered here was identified and classified according to established references like FAO ISSCAAP, FAO TAXOCODE, FAO CODE ASFIS 3A, AphiaID, and ITIS/TSN.
