Bird assemblages in Tasmanian clearcuts are influenced by the age of eucalypt regeneration but not by distance from mature forest

We found that distance from mature forest had no significant effects on bird assemblage composition, native species richness per sample, or the incidences of any species. This result was apparent across all three age classes of silvicultural regeneration, despite significant changes in the assemblage composition, native species richness, and incidence of 10 species, with time since harvest.
