Crop-land simplification impacts differently on small mammal communities: evidence from diversity/dominance plots using Barn Owl (Tyto alba) pellets
The land transformation of traditional agro-mosaics into progressively more anthropized crops can trigger changes in small mammal communities. Here,...
