Study area (Tokyo city) and fourteen parks sampled and seven built-up sites.

Species accumulation curves of ground beetles in remnant parks (blue line), old established parks (green line) and newly established parks (red line). Pale colored polygons are 95% CIs.

Fig. S3

Species richness of butterflies and ground beetles in four habitat types estimated by GLMMs; remnant parks (Remnant), old established parks (Old est.), newly established parks (New est.), and built-up sites (Built-up), respectively. Estimates are shown using the mean values (black squares) and associated 95% CIs (vertical bars). Because we used old established parks as a reference category, the estimate of each habitat type was calculated by the sum of intercepts of old parks and slope of each habitat type (see Table 1). Note that each estimated value on the panels is shown after exponential transformation (the log-scale estimated values of GLMMs were shown in Table 1). Because in this study ground beetles were not found in the built-up sites, we removed these sites from the panels for ground beetles.
