Fig. 3From: Comparing western (Megascops kennicottii) and whiskered (M. trichopsis) screech-owl microbiomes in southern Arizona using a novel 16S rRNA sequencing methodObserved richness and Shannon diversity for cloacal samples (A) and fecal samples (B) of nestlings of western and whiskered screech-owls. Black points denote the diversity measurements for each sample. Only bacterial species richness significantly differed between bird species for cloacal samplesBack to article page
