This quiz addresses the requirements of the National Curriculum KS1 Science for children aged 5 and 6 in years 1 and 2. Specifically this quiz is aimed at the section dealing with living things, micro-habitats and minibeasts. Where living things are found is called their habitat. It’s not...
Skinks primarily utilized long logs, large woody debris piles, and large trees; microhabitats that were scarce or absent in restored sites and, therefore, potential barriers to colonization. Using this information, we introduced small woody debris piles into restored sites in close proximity to ...
respectively (Fig.2A). While 118 shared ARGs were found across microhabitats, accounting for 72% of the total ARGs detected, and 7, 5, and 1 unique ARGs were detected in the phyllosphere, litter, and soil, respectively (Fig.2A).

Extrapolations from home-range estimates indicated that a minimum of four logsha鈥 1 are required in restored areas to facilitate recolonisation by skinks, with skink densities likely to increase with log densities. Our study demonstrated that not all fauna will naturally recolonise restored areas...
