Effects of forest fragmentation, anthropogenic edges and fruit colour on the consumption of ornithocoric fruits
(Elsevier B.V., 2003-06-01)
We investigated effects of fruit colour (red, black or white), habitat (anthropogenic edges and forest interior) and fragment size on the removal of artificial fruits in semideciduous forests in south-east Brazil. Eight ...
Fine-tuning the fruit-tracking hypothesis: Spatiotemporal links between fruit availability and fruit consumption by birds in Andean mountain forests
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-11)
1. The fruit-tracking hypothesis predicts spatiotemporal links between changes in the abundance of fruit-eating birds and the abundance of their fleshy-fruit resources. 2. While the spatial scale of plant-frugivore ...
Bird fruit consumption results from the interaction between fruit-handling behaviour and fruit crop size
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-01)
Bird foraging behaviour is a major factor involved in mutualistic interactions of fleshy-fruited plants. Despite much research, we still lack quantified demonstrations of how fruit display traits affect fruit removal ...
