Relative Abundance of Herpetofaunal Species in Peat Swamp Forests of the Campus of UNIMAS, Kota Samarahan, Sarawak

A fundamental knowledge of species diversity and their correlation to habitats are essential in understanding land use and management. Thus, compiling and analyzing data on herpetofaunal species present in the campus of UNIMAS at Kota Samarahan, Sarawak, is critical for their conservation and man...
