Epizoochory, Algae and the Australian Eastern Long-Necked Turtle Chelodina Longicollis (Shaw)

The American Midland Naturalist, 2008
The role of animals in seed dispersal is widely acknowledged and turtles have been reported to act as vectors. All reports of turtles dispersing seeds to date have been via endozoochrony. The first evidence of turtles being epizoochronic dispersers of seeds via their carapacial algal mat is reported here.

The contact separation force of the fruit burrs from five plant taxa dispersing by epizoochory

Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant Biology, 2019
AbstractMany plant diaspores dispersing by epizoochory bear special structures, such as burrs with hooks, which are responsible for the mechanical interlocking with animal fur or feathers.

Sequence variation and dispersal ability by epizoochory in Mediterranean Cynoglossum (Boraginaceae): preliminary evidence from ITS and fruit traits.

2010
Cynoglossum comprises ca. 75 biennial to perennial (rarely annual) herbs in the Old and New World, mainly growing in open habitats and especially pasturelands. A major centre of diversity is the Mediterranean, where some 30 species range from Anatolia to the Iberian peninsula and north Africa.
