The ecology of attraction: Fruit traits and frugivore diversity in neotropical Piper
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 611-623, March 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits can benefit plant reproduction by enhancing seed dispersal by mutualistic frugivores (e.g. seed dispersal syndromes), but identifying the role of specific fruit traits in mediating frugivory is challenging because these traits can serve multiple functions ...

Redes de interações de frugivoria por aves em plantas nativas e exóticas em ambiente urbano [PDF]
, 2021 Fruit consumption by birds is well reported in Brazil, but few studies compared the use of native and exotic fruit, especially in urban environment. Network Theory may be a useful tool in such studies, since it allows to evaluate multiple species of both animal and plants involved in interactions.

A New Method of Fruit Marking for Studies on Chiropterochory
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.We used edible glitter to mark 15,526 fruits of three chiropterochorous plants at 700, 1000, 2000, and 3200 m from a bat roost in Brazil's caatinga. Glitter from all distances was detected at the roost, allowing the identification of specific feeding areas accessed, providing a new approach for zoochory studies.
