Beetles in a floodplain forest are affected by where they live in the trees and which tree species they prefer. Common beetle species are more likely to be found in the lower parts of the trees, while rare species are more common in the upper canopy. The type of tree also plays a role, with different tree species attracting different types of beetles. Overall, the location in the tree and the tree species together influence the diversity of beetle species in the forest. This means that studying only the lower parts of the trees may not give a complete picture of the beetle community in the forest.
