Altitudinal variation of community metrics in Italian small mammal assemblages as revealed by Barn Owl (Tyto alba) pellets
Abstract
A databank on the pellets of a widespread owl species (the Barn Owl, Tyto alba) was used in order to evaluate the differences in taxonomical composition and community metrics of small mammals (Rodentia and Soricomorpha) along an altitude gradient in Italy. The databank consisted of data from 292 sites, with altitudes ranging between −6 and 1292 m a.s.l. GLM models showed that the number of Rodentia species decreased significantly with elevation...
