摘要: Concepts from island-biogeography theory (MacArthur and Wilson 1967) have been instrumental in testing understanding current patterns of faunal distribution fragmented landscapes. The species-area curve, for instance, has enabled us to examine the relationship between patch size species richness various landscapes (e.g., Robbins et al. 1989). effects on community structure Friesen 1995; Yahner 1997), reproductive success Robinson 1995), population demographics Wauters 1994; Litvaitis Villafuerte 1996; Wolff 1997; Mahan 1998) examined. These previous studies are vital natural resource managers conservation biologists concerned with biological ecosystem management. However, an important largely untapped area research is animal behavior (Yahner 1997a).
