To write:

The calculation of the change in bird species richness across islands in the Lesser Antilles

Introduction:

The number of dissimilar species characterized in a landscape, ecological community or region. This is just a species count, which is called as species richness. If you have many species, more species will be prosperous so there will be a stable ecosystem. The increase in biodiversity is contributed by the species richness, which is a significant aspect of biodiversity conservation.

An area of small land encircled by water and from a continent is called islands. Islands can be inseas, lakes, oceans, or rivers. The continents are also encircled by water, but because they are large, they are not considered as islands.

‘Lesser Antilles’ is a cluster of islands in the Caribbean Sea. It is a long arc of the size of small islands.
