Sampling comments: "camera trap stations were installed in different vegetation covers: Secondary Forest (SF) (young growth; 9 cameras), Urapan Forest (UF; 1 camera) and Colombian Oak Forest (OF; 1 camera), considered well-conserved habitat, as well as in Regenerating vegetation Field area (RvFa; 2 cameras) and vegetation Compost area (RvCo; 1 camera), considered less-conserved habitat... Each camera trap station was equipped with a passive motion sensor WILDVIEW® Infrared Xtreme camera... located 50 cm above ground... Sampling was carried out for 49 days in 2009-2 (July-December), 60 days in 2010-1 (January-June), 30 days in 2010-2 (July-December) and 30 days in 2011-1 (January-June). During 2009-2 and 2010-1 a total of 14 camera trap stations were active (9 SF, 1 UF, 1 OF, 2 RvFa, 1 RvCo); during 2010-2 a total of 11 camera trap stations were active (7 SF, 1 UF, 1 OF, 1 RvFa, 1 RvCo), and in 2011-1 a total of seven camera trap stations were active (3 SF, 1 UF, 1 OF, 1 RvFa, 1 RvCo)... Photographs 1) taken on the same date with 30-minute time intervals, and 2) taken at the same hour and date for different individuals of the same species and for different individuals of different species, were considered independent events"
