Soil resource partitioning may have contributed to the stable coexistence of grasses and trees that form savannahs at this ecotone. |
Optimal habitat consists of open medium to tall grasslands fringed with an ecotone of woody vegetation. |
The vegetation covers 129 ha as a riparian ecotone made up primarily of low scrubland, followed by high scrubland up to 20 m wide. |
Site connectivity and riparian ecotone functions must therefore be restored. |
Rabbit populations seem to be greatest in ecotone habitats and less in scrublands or grasslands. |
Golden-winged Warbler territories usually included a shrubby field with patches of herbs and shrubs, a field-forest ecotone and adjacent forest. |
