Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 238-253, January 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Seed dispersal by frugivores is a crucial step of the life cycle of most plants, influencing plant population and community dynamics. Although very important for most ecosystems, we are just beginning to understand which are the mechanisms driving frugivore‐mediated ...

SITIENTIBUS série Ciências Biológicas, 2013 Fruits are important food resources for frugivorous birds and also for insectivores and omnivores. In this paper, we describe the fruit phenology, seed frugivory and potential dispersers of Matayba guianensis by birds in an urban savanna area in Mato Grosso do Sul state, Brazil, from October 2007 to September 2008 and January 2009.
