| Περιγραφή: | The squirrel monkey’ habitat status was evaluated between September 2005 and May 2006, outside of Corcovado National Park in Osa Peninsula. Twenty two forested sites were evaluated between Rincon River and Carate River, to determine the floral composition and horizontal composition of the forest and the demographic characteristics of squirrel monkey troops (size and sex composition). Sixty three 20 by 50 meters plots were established and a total of 4416 trees were found belonging to 354 different species. Forested sites near La Palma town were more diverse and shared a similarity in floral composition. It is urgent to implement voluntary conservation tools among private landowners outside of protected areas and to educate the community members in the surroundings of forested sites used by squirrel monkey troops. |
