Cascading Effects of Overhunting on the Functional Tree Composition of Amazonian Forests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We examined how overhunting‐induced defaunation affects the functional composition of tropical tree communities in western Brazilian Amazonia. Using a robust, spatially replicated dataset from 30 forest plots across a well‐defined gradient of hunting pressure, we assessed the impacts of vertebrate depletion on plant recruitment patterns, dispersal ...
