The strong preference for snags in all forest types supports the suggestion that snags are important in determining the abundance of woodpeckers.
Inbreeding depression and its effects on natal dispersal in red-cockaded woodpeckers.
These novel resources may explain, in part, the maintenance of high woodpecker diversity in tropical rain forests.
The availability of suitable microhabitat corresponded strongly with woodpecker abundance, and snags were the most highly preferred foraging substrate across species and study sites.
A significant difference in the overall woodpecker community between the two forest types was found.
The goal of this study was to document possible changes in the woodpecker community by identifying differences in relative abundance of individual species.
Five visitors were unidentified passerines; the sixth was an unidentified woodpecker.
This study investigated the community of woodpeckers in a forest that was selectively logged 40 y ago compared to the community in adjacent unlogged forest.
