Forest, fallow and cassava fields
Quadrat in the fallow means species collected with aspirator in 1 meter
square. Vegetation type dominated by Chromolaena
odorata).
Quadrat in the forest means species collected
with aspirator in a 1 meter square in the forest (mostly secondary
forest). For species captured with baiting, it was a mix of canned tuna
and honey.
