Fruit use and fruit processing by euphonias, specialized avian frugivores
Euphonias (Neotropical passerines in the genera Euphonia and Chlorophonia) form the quintessential example of a specialized avian frugivore, combining a high reliance on fruit as food and the restriction of fruit taxa exploited. To understand their specialization, we explored the integration of fruit morphological and nutritional traits with their ...

Fruit colour has long fascinated scientists and is widely considered an evolutionary adaptation to attract both avian and mammalian frugivores. While fleshy fruits play a key role in plant–animal interactions by promoting seed dispersal, the functional significance of colour variation, particularly multicoloured displays during ripening, remains poorly

Abstract Introduction Invasions by Pinus represent major challenges for conservation and ecological restoration, especially in open ecosystems of tropical South America, such as the Brazilian neotropical savanna (Cerrado). Objective We evaluated whether the clear‐cutting and manual removal of Pinus caribaea reduce the impacts of invasion on woody plant
