• Seed dispersal by spider monkeys and its importance in the maintenance of neotropical rain-forest diversity (2006, background): “Thus far, however, relatively few studies have attempted to describe the seed shadows generated by spider monkeys or to quantify their ecological role (but see Chapman 1989, Dew 2001, Russo 2003, Russo & Augspurger 2004).”
• Genetic analysis of landscape connectivity in tree populations (2006, background): “Seed pool structure analysis For many plant species, seeds are widely dispersed in a patchy manner (e.g. beneath nesting sites of spider monkeys (Ateles paniscus) in Amazonian forests (Russo and Augspurger 2004)) and it is not feasible to genotype the full range of maternal candidates.”
• Spatial pattern of adult trees and the mammal-generated seed rain in the Iberian pear (2010, background): “1999), establishment beneath mother trees (Chapman and Chapman 1995), and the pattern of seed delivery by its seed dispersers (Russo and Augspurger 2004).”
• Movement patterns of three arboreal primates in a Neotropical moist forest explained by LiDAR-estimated canopy structure (2016, background): “Thus, the amount of seed fall from the forest canopy and spatial patterns of seedling recruitment on the forest floor may depend heavily on the movements of arboreal dispersers (Russo and Augspurger 2004; Russo et al. 2006;Wehncke and Domı́nguez 2007).”
• Seed dispersal by a frugivorous marsupial shapes the spatial scale of a mistletoe population (2009, background): “Many animals tracking fruits and seeds spend considerable time in the canopy of fruiting plants or nearby, thereby generating high-density clumps of dispersed seeds beneath or around adult plants (Peres & Baider 1997; Jordano & Schupp 2000; Russo & Augspurger 2004).”
• COMPARATIVE SEED SHADOWS OF BIRD‐, MONKEY‐, AND WIND‐DISPERSED TREES (2005, background): “…visited by frugivores) and directed dispersal (preferential dispersal to sites with high recruitment probabilities) are common and complicate conceptual models of seed shadows (Howe and Smallwood 1982, Wenny and Levey 1998, Schupp et al. 2002, Clark et al. 2004, Russo and Augspurger 2004).”
• Hunting of Mammals Reduces Seed Removal and Dispersal of the Afrotropical Tree Antrocaryon klaineanum (Anacardiaceae) (2007, background): “Ironically, just as empirical studies that make that connection are emerg- ing (e.g., Julliot 1997, Kinnaird 1998, Fragoso et al. 2003, Russo & Augspurger 2004), we are simultaneously finding that the loss of seed dispersal may reduce the viability of plant populations (NunezIturri & Howe 2007,…”
• Microhabitats shift rank in suitability for seedling establishment depending on habitat type and climate (2005, background): “Ecological Society, Journal of Ecology 93 , 1194‐1202 2002), seed arrival (Dalling et al . 2002; Russo & Augspurger 2004 ), herbivory (Ostfeld & Canham 1993; Gomez et al . 2003), pathogens (Augspurger 1983; Packer & Clay 2000) and competition with herbs (De Steven 1991).”
• Seed dispersal effectiveness revisited: a conceptual review. (2010, background): “…beneath primate sleeping trees, results in high densities of seedlings and saplings (e.g. Julliot, 1997; Russo & Augspurger, 2004); that is, greater amounts of seed fall carry through to greater overall levels of sapling recruitment, even with reduced survival per seed (Russo & Augspurger, 2004).”
