Influence of riparian habitats on the distribution of rainforest chameleons in Parc National de Ranomafana, Madagascar
Abstract The spatial and seasonal distribution of chameleon species along ecological gradients within six riparian areas in Parc National de Ranomafana was studied using transects. Eight species of chameleons were recorded (Palleon nasus, Brookesia superciliaris, B. thieli, Calumma gastrotaenia, C. glawi, C. nasutum, C. crypticum and C. oshaughnessyi), of which four showed significant association to the riparian edge: P. nasus, C. gastrotaenia, C. glawi and C. nasutum. These distribution patterns may be related to interspecific differences in roosting ecology, demography structure and feeding behaviour.
期刊介绍:
African Journal of Herpetology (AJH) serves as an outlet for original research on the biology of African amphibians and reptiles. AJH is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes original articles and reviews from diverse fields and disciplines, such as conservation, phylogenetics, evolution, systematics, performance, physiology, ecology, behavioural ecology, ethology, and morphology.
The Journal publishes two issues a year. There are no page charges .
