“…Furthermore, several works investigated the effect of habitat type and quality on the richness and diversity of birds (Jacoboski, Mendonça‐Lima, & Hartz, 2016; Marsden, Whiffin, & Galetti, 2001; Proenca, Pereira, Guilherme, & Vicente, 2010; Zurita, Rey, Varela, Villagra, & Bellocq, 2006). The local vegetation structure, for instance, (a) tree and shrub density/cover (Jakobsson & Lindborg, 2017; Li et al, 2019; Söderström et al, 2001), (b) plant species richness (Baláž & Balážová, 2012; Šálek, Svobodová, & Zasadil, 2010) and (c) canopy height (Robbins, 1980), often contributes to increasing the richness and diversity of birds. The difference in habitat type may also affect the bird diversity such as when comparing natural forests to artificial plantations (Hanane, Cherkaoui, Magri, & Yassin, 2019; Marsden et al, 2001; Zurita et al, 2006).…”
