Comparative evaluation of funnel, box, and camera traps for reptile and amphibian inventory
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We used data from 5 herpetological inventories conducted in Florida to evaluate the relative efficacy of funnel, box, and motion‐triggered camera traps for detecting reptile and amphibian species along drift‐fence arrays. Our results suggest that a hybrid array design (funnel traps + central camera trap) is best suited for general herpetofaunal ...
