USGA Summary Points: | The total number of species trapped on the golf course was 9. The total number of species trapped on the woodland was 11. Species richness increased with increasing patch size. Species richness was higher for patches on the woodland than for patches on the golf course. Total abundance of animals, measured as the number of unique animals trapped, was highest on the mainlands. On the golf course, animal abundance increased with increasing patch size. In the woodland, animal abundance increased with increasing patch size. In general, mainland patches supported much larger small mammal populations than did golf course patches. |
