Feather mite abundance: an ecological and comparative approach
Organisms’ abundance has been extensively studied at different spatial (local, regional, global) and organizational scales (population, community, species, ecosystem) by using different measures (number of organisms, biomass, prevalence). Moreover, abundance estimates are essential in evolution, conservation, or management, being one of the central ...
