Total species number per elevation and forest-use intensity. Number of species of vascular epiphytes recorded at the different levels of forest-use intensity (FUI: OG; old-growth forest, DF; degraded forest and SF; secondary forest) at each of the study sites (0 m, 500 m, 1000 m, 1500 m, 2000 m, 2500 m, 3000 m and 3500 m). At each elevational site, five plots were sampled per FUI. Red points indicate the total number of species per study site.
