Connecting forest patches near cities with ecological protected areas would have a positive impact on butterfly diversity. At the level of the landscape, at small scale (50 and 100 m) arboreal vegetation cover (%VA) was the most important variable, meanwhile, as the scale increased the variables related to urbanization such as construction cover, number of pedestrian and distance to the center of the city became increasingly important. Local variables accounted for 74.9% of the variance in the abundance data, with mean environmental temperature, relative humidity, the number of pedestrians and plant cover the most important variables. As expected, species turnover was greatest between forests and the urban area (Whittaker's species turnover = 50.88). Diversity and evenness were low in the most urbanized environments, indicating that urban butterfly ensembles are dominated by few abundant species. The AEP and forests had the highest (38 species) and lowest (21 species) richness respectively. Species accumulation curves indicate that sampling completeness was 91% fifty species were recorded, with Satyrinae: Satyrini the richest group (15 species), and Heliconiinae the poorest subfamily (8 species). Butterflies were sampled at 300 m length and 10 m wide transects rooted-fruit baited traps and intentional sampling. We evaluated butterfly diversity in two Mexican cities by establishing four categories of urbanization: urban, suburban, areas of ecological protection (AEP) and forest. Go to the enclose with the zebras, rhinos etc.Latin America is one of the most urbanized developing regions, however little is known about the biodiversity of its cities and the way this biodiversity is affected by landscape and local variables. Above the broken tree trunk, is in the little bee. In the zoo, in the elephant enclose, there is a broken tree trunk in the middle. Unfortunately, the screenshots for the last two bee's are missing. You should be able to see in the photo the park in the background and the bee glowing. This bee is near the amusement park, towards the donuts stall with a water fountain. In the photo you can see what area you are searching for. This bee is near the new hive, at a little water fountain and seating area. shown by the glowing hexagons in the photo. Near the donuts shall, there is a radio and a phone. Was near the boat house again, on the decking that goes across the water. The little bee was above the sunflowers in the picture below. Was found on the boat house, along the side as the new hive and the eating area. I found this bee in the amusement park, in the eating area. In the image you can just about see the glowing hexagons through the tree, towards the floor. It is the building which kinda looks like a castle. This bee is found near the seals, the building opposite should have a little bee hidden. Go to the first rabbit hutch, and underneath, you should be able to spot the glowing hexagons, this is where the little bee is hiding. The jar should be on the corner of the blanket. Ideally fast travel to this location, and look out for a red picnic blanket with food out. I found this bee, at the picnic area, next to a jar of honey. They are not written or numbered in any way in order, they are numbered as i found them.
