Picking pithy plants: Pith selectivity by wild white‐faced capuchin monkeys, Cebus imitator
“When and why do white‐faced capuchins eat plant pith? We investigated how ecological variables and plant traits shape patterns of pith consumption. We find that pith foraging occurs primarily during seasonal transitions, and that dietary pith species contain relatively more pith, are softer, and have a different odor profile than non‐dietary species.“
