| description | A study of resource partitioning among four sympatric geckos species were
conducted at UNIMAS campus over a period of three days. Four species were
collected- Hemidactylus platyurus, Hemidactylus frenatus, Gehyra mutilata and
Gekko monarchus. A total 46 specimens were collected to compare resource use in
terms of diet, microhabitat and use of diel temporal resources. Berger-Parker
Diversity Index, Diversity Index of Simpson (1949) and Mac Arthur and Levi’s
(1967) were used to compute food dominance, niche breadth and niche overlap.
Results show partitioning only for microhabitat and diel time, but not in dietary
resources. |
