Appendix E. Speies richness and turnover rates in each park from one year to the next, as estimated with the software COMDYN.

TABLE E1. Speies richness and turnover rates in each park from one year to the next, as estimated with the software COMDYN. Numbers in parenthesis indicate the standard error of the estimate. Subscripts in R, N, and P indicate first (1) and second (2) field season estimates. n = number of points surveyed in each reserve or park; R = number of species detected during the field season; N is the estimated number of species during each field season; λ₁ is the rate of change in species richness estimated as N₂/N₁; λ₂ is the rate of change in species richness estimated as R₂/R₁; Gamma (γ) is the estimated complement of species turnover; B is the estimated number of new species; P is the average species detection probability in each field season.
