Hummingbird diversity in a fragmented tropical landscape in the Chocó biogeographic zone
We investigated habitat‐ and site‐level patterns of diversity, and community composition of hummingbirds between continuous forest (transects n = 16 in ~3500 ha) and more disturbed surrounding fragments (n = 39, 2.5–48.0 ha) in the Chocó rainforest of northwestern Ecuador.
