 Data Analysis


 The significance level for all tests was set at 0.05. I made my analysis of
habitat use by comparing use and availability with Friedman's (Conover 1980) and
chi-square goodness-of-fit (Neu et al. 1974) tests on all locations and then
comparing proportions of traps and number of captures in closed- (swamp and
hammock) and open-canopy (sandhill and clear-water-lake fringe) habitat types
with a binomial test (Hintze 1987; Ott 1988).
 For the Friedman's test, I assumed that habitat availability was the same for
all animals. A habitat's availability was defined as the proportion of that habitat
