Comparison of avian assemblage structures in two upper montane forests of the Cameroon volcanic line: lessons for bird conservation

2014-06-01

Abstract excerpt

The Cameroon volcanic line montane forests host specific avian assemblages with many endemic species. Such unique bird assemblages deserve adequate description for proper protection. For this purpose, we sampled birds in the upper montane forests of Mts Cameroon and Oku situated at ~2,250 m. We combined point counts and continuous observations to describe species composition and estimate densities of particular sp...
