Mammalian diversity in the study area.
Cluster analysis of landscape use ratio in different habitats (i.e. forest habitat (FH), rural forest habitat (RFH), agriculture rural habitat (ARH), urban vegetative habitat (UVH) and urban non-vegetative habitat (UNH)) around river Chenab in Sialkot, Gujrat and Gujranwala districts, Punjab, Pakistan from May, 2013 through April, 2014.
DCA of patterns of occupancy of sample plots predicted for 17 wild mammalian species (with code present in Table II) relative to six habitat characteristics i.e. forest habitat (FH), rural forest habitat (RFH), agriculture rural habitat (ARH), urban vegetative habitat (UVH) and urban non-vegetative habitat (UNH).
