摘要: We studied lizard assemblages assessing abundance, richness, and nestedness in a fragmented landscape of central Chile including native temperate forest, forest fragments, commercial pine plantations. Fragmentation plantations increase the availability edge habitats triggering both support additional species, absent at continuous assemblages, where interior are nested subsets habitat edges. A vulnerable (Liolaemus tenuis) thrives fragments abundance similar to forest. Therefore, remnants ought be considered conservation assemblages.
