NMDS representation of the relationship between soil environmental factors and surveyed areas based on Eremias argus occurrence patterns. The yellow points indicate the zone with a high frequency of E. argus (F zone), and the mint-colored points indicate the zone where E. argus was rare (R zone). Differences in a soil hardness b cobble cover, and c plant litter cover between these two zones were considered. Additionally, the “ordisurf” function from the vegan package was used to separate the range of environmental factors with green lines.
