Overview

Research analyzes reptile communities in modified landscapes, highlighting their decline due to environmental changes.

Key Points

  • Reptile abundance declines with increased human landscape modification, negatively impacting species diversity.
  • The Shannon–Wiener index for reptile diversity was 1.78, encompassing 21 species in the study.
  • Visual encounter surveys assessed four types of landscapes, revealing key relationships with environmental factors.
  • Findings suggest water sources and vegetation support reptile communities, while disturbances have adverse effects.
