Bushmeat and the Fate of Trees with Seeds Dispersed by Large Primates in a Lowland Rain Forest in Western Amazonia (2007, background): “Consequently, large and medium primates provide long distance dispersal for several tree species (Chapman & Chapman 1995, Stevenson 2000, Wehncke et al. 2003), and they play an essential ecological role as dispersal agents of large and medium seeds (Peres & van Roosmalen 2002).”
Interspecific variation in primary seed dispersal in a tropical forest (2008, background): “5 km), we know that some seeds and fruits are arriving from trees outside the mapped area (Wehncke et al. 2003; Jones et al. 2005; Hardesty et al. 2006).”
Seed dispersal by spider monkeys and its importance in the maintenance of neotropical rain-forest diversity (2006, background): “…higher than those reported for a range of other Neotropical primates (e.g. woolly monkeys: Stevenson 2000; howler monkeys: Julliot 1996; capuchins: Wehncke et al. 2003, Zhang & Wang 1995), including other populations of Ateles (Russo 2003, Zhang & Wang 1995), and our results show that spider…”
Differential Effects of Hunting on Pre‐Dispersal Seed Predation and Primary and Secondary Seed Removal of Two Neotropical Tree Species (2007, background): “Likely primary seed dispersers of both species are howler monkeys (Aloutta palliata; Milton 1980), white-faced monkeys (Cebus capucinus; Wehncke et al. 2003), spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi; Milton 1993), Geoffroy’s tamarins (Sanguinus geoffroyi), common opossums (Didelphis marsupialis), coatis…”
Consequences of Seed Dispersal for Plant Recruitment in Tropical Forests: Interactions Within the Seedscape (2013, background): “For exam- ple, granivores, such as rats, may contribute to secondary dispersal of seeds, despite typically being considered seed predators (Adler & Kestell 1998, Wells & Bagchi 2005, Shiels & Drake 2011).”
