This article provides descriptions and illustrations of microfungi associated with the leaf litter
of Celtis formosana, Ficus ampelas, F. septica, Macaranga tanarius and Morus australis …

Primates are among the most important seed dispersers in the habitats they occupy.
Understanding the extent of, and gaps in, our knowledge of seed dispersal by Asian …

The colours of fleshy fruits play a critical role in plant dispersal by advertising ripe fruits to
consumers. Fruit colours have long been classified into syndromes attributed to selection by …

Forest edges have significant effects on plant species and trait compositions. However, most
current studies on edge effects are based on natural forests, and studies on edge effects in …

Vertical seed dispersal, ie seed dispersal towards a higher or lower altitude, is considered a
critical process for plant escape from climate change. However, studies exploring vertical …

Understanding the interactions among fruits and frugivore assemblages provides
fundamental information for the management of ecosystems. Asian temperate forests are …

Birds and mammals are important seed dispersers of fleshy-fruited plants. Although their
behaviors are different, they frequently consume the same species. Thus to understand the …

An aggregated distribution of dispersed seeds may influence the colonization process in
tree communities via inflated spatial uncertainty. To evaluate this possibility, we studied 10 …

Resprouting of woody species after above‐ground damage may help plants to persist longer
at a given site and quickly reoccupy disturbed sites, thereby strongly influencing forest …

Premise of the Study In animal‐dispersed plants, seed dispersal patterns of the same
species in the same habitat can greatly differ among individuals and temporally. Many …
