Fruit trees and herbaceous plants increase functional and phylogenetic diversity of birds in smallholder rubber plantations

H. Manjari Jayathilake et al.

Summary: Rubber plantations and agroforests in Southern Thailand have comparable functional and phylogenetic diversity metrics for birds. The presence of fruit trees and taller herbaceous plants within agroforests positively influences diversity levels. Landscapes with a higher proportion of fruit orchards tend to have higher functional and phylogenetic diversity, while degraded natural forest patches may have lower diversity levels.
