Figures
- Figure 1.
Species richness rarefaction curves for the 2005 and 2021 dry seasons showing a significant difference between years. Sampling unit was permanent plots along five transects.
- Figure 2.
Observed changes in total, wetland obligate, and wetland facultative species richness in the rainy seasons of the years 2005 and 2021. Sampling units for the period 2005 to 2015 are permanent plots and for 2021 the sampling units was the area defined by each transect length and a 1 m wide band centered in each transect.
