Figure 6

Dominance (basal area) of species as a function of the distance from the village boundaries. In the figure, solid circles with solid lines, hollow circles with solid lines, and hollow circle with dashed lines indicate total dominance, dominance of Shorea robusta, and dominance of other species except for Shorea robusta, respectively. (a) Janajagaran BZCF: significant (p < 0.05), (b) Musharni Mai BZCF: nonsignificant (p > 0.05), (c) Radha Krishna BZCF: significant (p < 0.001), and (d) Parsa Wildlife Reserve: nonsignificant (p > 0.05).
