3 INTRODUCTION - Explaining the species richness of birds along a complete rainforest elevational gradient in the tropics distribution of birds along a complete elevational forest gradient in tropics describe species richness patterns of individual feeding guilds explore how the species richness patterns could be explained
4 STUDY SITES - Explaining the species richness of birds along a complete rainforest elevational gradient in the tropics Study sites Elevational gradient of Mt.Wilhelm (4509 m) study sites
5 METHODS - Explaining the species richness of birds along a complete rainforest elevational gradient in the tropics Method - Birds ( ) Point Count = 14 days 5:45 10:30 16 points 150 m apart 1 point = 0.78 ha 15 minutes at point Mist - Netting = 11 days 200m of nets 12 hours/day 5:30 17:30 Random Walks - 2 hours/day Random walking around the area 14:00 17:30 and 6:00 8:00 20 hours at elevation area = 70 ha

15 RESULTS - Explaining the species richness of birds along a complete rainforest elevational gradient in the tropics
16 CONCLUSIONS - Explaining the species richness of birds along a complete rainforest elevational gradient in the tropics Conclusions Species richness correlated with habitat complexity and contemporary climate Different patterns for birds with feeding specialization Insectivorous birds very sensitive to habitat complexity Hypothesis: Insectivorous birds likely to be influenced by habitat characteristics indirectly via arthropods and frugivorous birds could be dependent on richness/abundance of ficus trees
