ON THE IMPACT OF ANTHROPOGENIC TRANSFORMATION OF URBAN LANDSCAPE ON THE SPECIES STRUCTURE AND THE NUMBER OF INSECTIVOROUS MAMMALS
As a result of a two-year (2019, 2020) study of the species diversity of insectivorous communities captured on fourbiotopes inNovosibirsk Akademgorodok, located within a radius of 5 km, differing in varying degrees of anthropogenictransformation (from native to urbanosis); the study also identifies differences in species abundance, population size, structureof dominance of insectivores of the studied biotopes. At the early stage of landscape transformation in the contact zone of thebiotope with low-rise buildings, the anthropogenic factor acts most aggressively, which is the number of insectivores incatches increases. The biotope community of a later stage of transformation, which has been exposed to an aggressiveenvironment for a long time, is small in number. The species diversity of insectivorous communities is characterized usinginformation indexes.
