Fig. 2 in Avian Assemblages in Forest Fragments do not Sum to the Expected Regional Community in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest.

Fig. 2. Numbers of species and similarities (PCoA) among the 10 Atlantic Forest fragments in southern Bahia, Brazil. A) Species accumulation curves, illustrating that with over 5000 sightings, the predicted total number of species had not been reached in any fragment, or in all fragments combined. Also, the similarity of the curves and their lack of a relationship with fragment size suggests that all fragments are similar with respect to accumulation of species. Note that both axes are log10 scaled. B) Principal Coordinate Analysis, using Bray similarities, illustrating that similarity among fragments was always low. Larger symbols indicate fragment centroids, and each smaller point indicates a sample list of species (see text). No particular pattern is evident, and all fragments are variable and do not form groups based on fragment size.
