Germination of Cecropia pachystachya (Urticaceae) Dispersed by Artibeus lituratus (Olfers, 1818) and Artibeus planirostris (Spix, 1823; Chiroptera, Phyllostomidae), Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil [PDF]
Tropical Conservation Science, 2017 Neotropical fruit bats are important dispersers of endozoochorous seeds, and the passage of seeds through their guts can affect germination. We asked whether the passage of Cecropia pachystachya (Urticaceae) seeds through guts of bats influences their germination behavior, specifically the proportion of germinated seeds and onset and speed of ...

Revista Mexicana de Mastozoología (Nueva Epoca), 2022 El estudio de la fase activa de los animales permite describir sus patrones de actividad. Se ha propuesto que las diferencias entre estos patrones posibilitan la coexistencia de especies ecológicamente similares, al reducir la competencia. La luz lunar ha sido postulada como uno de los factores ambientales que afecta los patrones de actividad en ...
