Diversity and distribution of small terrestrial rodents along a disturbance gradient in montane Costa Rica

Abstract: Se estudió la distribución y diversidad de roedores terrestres en cinco hábitats perturbados en un área de bosque montano nuboso en Costa Rica. Un total de 3 89 capturas correspondió a 185 individuos (siete especies en 2 Ca- , milias). La riqueza de especies resultó muy similar para todos los hábitats,c on 4-5 especieslhábitat. La densidad de población y la frecuencia de captura fueron más altas en hábitats con niveles intennedios de perturbación; Peromyscus mexicanus y Scotinomys xerampelinus fueron cuatro a … Show more

“…However, White-crowned Sparrows inhabit dense vegetation (Sandoval and Mennill, 2012), and increasing the song minimum frequency to avoid overlap with background noise, could increase the attenuation of high frequencies in this habitat (Wiley and Richards, 1978;Marler, 2004). Therefore, species that inhabit dense vegetation with high anthropogenic noise as singing mice, frogs, or crickets (Van den Bergh and Kappelle, 1998;Savage, 2002;Bailey, 2005) may not increase the minimum frequencies of their vocalizations because this will affect the song transmission and communication with other individuals.…”
