Richness values are averages over the specified periods. Known introduced species have been excluded. bIf a species was captured by both methods in the same sampling area and period, it was only counted once. values and probabilities associated with “sampling areas mean square.” dDetermined by LSD (least significant difference) with the probabilities shown. |
