Final answer:

Species wealth, species richness, and species evenness are measurements used to measure diversity within an ecosystem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Three measurements used to measure diversity within an ecosystem are:

  1. Species wealth: Species wealth refers to the total number of species recorded for all sites (regional richness) and the average number of species found within sites (local richness).
  2. Species richness: Species richness is the number of different species in a particular area.
  3. Species evenness: Species evenness measures the relative abundance of each species within a community.
