Figures & data
Figure 1. Map of the study area with the locations of the 30 sampling sites in the coastal swamp forest remnants of the Araucanía Region, Chile.
Table 1. Vascular epiphytes and climbing plants recorded on 914 trees in coastal swamp forest remnants of the Araucanía region, Chile.
Figure 2. Extrapolation of the rarefaction curve from the reference sample for vascular epiphytes (A) and climbing plants (B) up to 75 samples (trees) in 30 swamp forest sites. The unbroken and broken lines represent groups of rich and poor sites, respectively, which present no statistical difference in standardised richness at 95% confidence. The circles represent the curves that achieve asymptote. To avoid saturating the image, the confidence limits of the rarefaction curves are not shown (see Table A1.1).
Figure 3. Estimated asymptotic richness for assemblages of vascular epiphytes (A) and climbing plants (B) in 30 swamp forest sites (ha). The dots represent the Chao 1 estimator and the bars the 95% confidence intervals (see Table A1.1).
