Figure 3. NMDS plots of unweighted UniFrac (A and D), weighted UniFrac (B and E), and Bray–Curtis (C and F) distance matrices from microhabitat soils (A–C) and Batrachoseps attenuatus skin microbiota samples (D–F).

Each point represents the bacterial skin community of an individual sample; point color indicates dominant vegetation of the habitat (Black—Quercus agrifolia and gray—Eucalyptus globulus) and shape indicates site identity (square—site 1, triangle—site 2 and diamond—site 3).
