This seems to work. Thanks.

comment Select features by attribute if in Python list
Good idea with the updated answer. I have chosen to use this approach as it much faster for processing larger lists. Slightly modified: q = " " for x in oid_set: query = '"OBJECTID_1" = ' + str(x) + ' OR ' q = query q = q[1:-4] and then selectbyattribute. Seems to work!

this appears to be working, but will certainly some time to process each individual selection for longer lists.

Interesting idea to iterate through the values and perform a select by attribute for each iteration. I'll test this, but I'm fairly certain this should work. Thanks.

Good point. Thanks.

Thanks. This seems consistent with everything else I've read relating to the recent file list. Not sure if I really want to fiddle with that registry without knowing more about it, though.

Nicely done, whuber! I had considered reclassing to separate grids for each veg type, but your focal sum technique is very clever! I'll give this a shot tomorrow and report back. Thank you!

So, to answer your question directly: neighboring blocks throughout one grid.

Another good question, @whuber. Ideally, this would be a pairwise comparison between each neighboring block throughout the grid. The simplified approach that I've been developing is more of a "meta"-diversity question, namely generating the number of different combinations of vegetation types found across those blocks in a given region. To the stricter definition of beta-diversity, it would be a true comparison of each component between blocks.
