Research Abstract |
I assessed changes of forest ecosystems by investigating ant communities, which are known as useful bioindicators. The results in the different conditions of two types of disturbances(impact of deer and selective logging) suggest that bait trapping method, which is the simplest method for collecting ants, can evaluate both the disturbances of the forest ecosystems.
