Poulin et al. (1999)
information on plant
phenology and frugivore diet used in this study was taken from two
independent studies carried out at Barro Colorado Island (9°9'N,
79°51'W) and Soberania National Park (9° 10'N, 79° 7'W) in
Central Panama. Both sites have a tropical monsoon climate and support
a semideciduous tropical forest with a mature canopy height of 35 m.
The abundance and diet of dispersal agents were studied to investigate
both the timing of fruit maturation and the patterns of seed dispersal.
The data indicates the number of
fruits taken by
the bird species mist-netted at the national park.
