Table 2. Environmental DNA sample results from bromeliads in three mountain ranges across Trinidad, West Indies.

Results are ordered by tree and by total bromeliad diameter in meters, small (S < 0.33 m), medium (M 0.33–0.66 m), or large (L > 0.66 m). Total eDNA copies is the copy number estimated for the whole sample.
