Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Plot species richness increased from 2003 to 2009.
- Association Increasing H. lepidulum density was associated with a +0.002 species per year component of richness increase.
- Association Other measured links between H. lepidulum and community attributes were generally not significant.
- Observation The authors conclude H. lepidulum coexists without measurable negative effects on richness, evenness or diversity after six years.
- Association The authors suggest H. lepidulum persisted preferentially at sites able to support species rich assemblages.
