aPlots are grouped based on their expected vertebrate assemblage. Plots without any ungulates (Group 1); plots with roe deer presence and a relatively species poor assemblage (expected species richness <7; Group 2); plots with roe deer presence and a relatively species rich assemblage (expected species richness >7; Group 3); plots with roe deer and fallow deer presence expected (Group 4); and plots with roe deer, red deer and wild boar presence expected (Group 5).
