Novel food resources and conservation of ecological interactions between the Andean Araucaria and the Austral parakeet. [PDF]
The results of this study show that the inter‐annual dependence of Austral parakeets on native habitats is influenced by the masting seed production strategy of Araucaria, a key species in the northern Patagonian Andes. Currently, this dependence seems to be largely modulated by disturbing factors promoting a feeding shift to exotic plants in anthropic
