Description
Summary:Research on species similarity and species diversity of small mammals in 10 repetitive sampling occasions (500 trap nights) was conducted in two diffeent habitat; an open and closed habitat. The first sampling were carried out in Sama Jaya Nature Reserve (SJNR) from April to Septembe 2008 and second sampling conducted in Kubah National Park (KNP) from february to June 2009. Closed model was chosen where sampling was conducted for five consecutive trap days in 10 repetitive sessions, each session has about five days to one week rest. A hundred of cage taps were set up and placed in grid system at each study site respectively, and mark-recapture method were used to capture the small mammals.
