Sampling comments: "three independent 0.6 ha grids (60 x 100 m each) of live-traps [Sherman and Tomahawk] and six transects of pitfall-traps... Trapping sessions were carried out bimonthly comprising five consecutive nights at each site during one year (November 2008 to September 2009). Overall our sampling effort at each site consisted of 3420 trap-nights, 2700 for live-traps and 720 for pitfall-traps site"
