Vertebrate responses to fruit production in Amazonian flooded and unflooded forests (2007, background): “Spatiotemporal variation in flowering and fruiting pulses in plant communities may therefore strongly influence vertebrates that rely wholly or partly on these resources (e.g. Moegenburg and Levey 2003).”
Fruit quantity of invasive shrubs predicts the abundance of common native avian frugivores in central Pennsylvania (2011, background): “…Blackwell Publishing Ltd declines in bird frugivore populations have been shown in studies that have experimentally removed fleshy fruits from habitats in the Block Islands (Parrish, 2000), longleaf pine savannas in South Carolina (Borgman et al., 2004) and the Amazon (Moegenburg & Levey, 2003).”
Wild Edible Fruits: A Systematic Review of an Under-Researched Multifunctional NTFP (Non-Timber Forest Product) (2019, background): “Disturbance in forests may result in lower abundance, diversity, and vitality of plants [117,118] and animals [119,120].”
Linking feeding ecology and population abundance: a review of food resource limitation on primates (2013, background): “…with rodents and pigeons were conducted at a scale of 1.7-3.5 ha and 1.8 ha, 112 Hanya and Chapman Primate abundance - 6 - respectively (Adler 1998; Moegenburg and Levey 2003), which is much smaller 113 than a home range of a single group of most diurnal primates (5 ha-24 km2) 114 (Mitani and…”
