Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Strangler figs (Ficus spp.) typically establish as epiphytes on host trees. Here we document abundant terrestrial establishment of strangler figs in burned tropical peat‐swamp forests of Sumatra, Indonesia. Given their abundance, flexible establishment mode, and role as keystone species supporting frugivore communities, naturally regenerating strangler
