Fig 4. Ordination plot showing principal coordinates of phylogenetic structure (PCPS) of snake communities occurring in forest (gray triangles) and non-forest areas (gray circles).

Dots represent species scores, and dot colors match lineage colors name. Lines connect communities of the same type of vegetation, with solid lines for forest and dashed lines for non-forest vegetation. Scolecophidia is composed by families Leptotyphlopidae, Anomalepididae, and Typhlopidae.
