PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Tank
bromeliads form complex, but discrete, microcosms whose biological, physical
and chemical parameters can be sampled in their entirety. Plants impound canopy
litter and throughfall water, and form a microhabitat for mainly detritivorous
animal communities. This study of their fauna provided a natural way to examine
diversity, and also the relationship between diversity and habitat parameters
at different elevations in the LEF.
