The influence of leaf characteristics on epiphyllic cover : a test of hypotheses with artificial leaves [PDF]
, 1995 Studies of epiphyll ecology have been hindered by the biochemical and morphological variability of the leaf substrate. The use of artificial (plastic ribbon tape) leaves solved that problem in a study done at the Braulio Carrillo National Park, Costa ...
