Animal seed dispersers are crucial in tropical forests because they provide beneficial
impacts to plants, from organisms to communities. Besides frugivorous species, omnivorous …

Tamarins, small Neotropical primates of the genera Saguinus and Leontocebus, have a
mainly frugivorous-faunivorous diet. While consuming the pulp of a high diversity of fruit …

Anthropogenic pressures such as hunting are increasingly driving the localised functional
extinctions of large‐and medium‐sized wildlife in tropical forests, a phenomenon broadly …

The habitats present in research sites across Amazonia have usually been characterized
only very broadly, for example, as inundated or non‐inundated (terra firma) forests …

The biodiversity knowledge has several deficits. The wallacean shortfall—related to species
distribution unknowledge—is one of the most studied shortfalls. It is important to identify …

Resumen HEYMANN, Eckhard W. y TIRADO HERRERA, Emérita R.. Estación Biológica
Quebrada Blanco: A little known site for research in biodiversity and ecology in Peruvian …

Frugivory and seed dispersal are fundamental ecological interactions influencing plant
population dynamics and distribution. Still, understanding how the ingestion of seeds by fruit …

Habitat loss and fragmentation are primary threats to mammals in the Amazon. In this
chapter, we review the extent of forest loss and fragmentation, the drivers of such processes …

Little is known of the ecology of Saguinus martinsi martinsi (Callitrichidae), native to the
Brazilian Amazon. In this study, we present information on its diet, and investigate seasonal …

Many animal species depend on sound to communicate with conspecifics. However, human‐
generated (anthropogenic) noise may mask acoustic signals and so disrupt behavior …
