Table Two ~ Species Richness Grid
Table Two is a 5 x 5 grid of the tetrads (2km squares) in TL41, and shows the species richness for each tetrad based on recording in 2005 - 2008 based on known records. In 2009 there has been some adjustment to the tables as in the past the page was updated at the time of recording and errors have crept in. There are are currently two transects in TL41.
