Field margins as substitute habitat for the conservation of birds in agricultural wetlands by Mallet, Pierre, Bechet, Arnaud, Sirami, Clelia, Mesleard, Francois, Blanchon, Thomas, Calatayud, Francois, Dagonet, Thomas, Gaget, Elie, Leray, Carole, Galewski, Thomas

“…These results therefore suggest that field margins may represent substitute habitats for some species but further studies, in contexts where species are strongly associated with their primary habitat, would be needed to confirm the generality of this hypothesis. Our results also suggest that species response to increasing the area of a field margin type may vary among guilds and even within guilds. …”
