  • Dispersal of a Neotropical Nutmeg (Virola Sebifera) by Birds
    DISPERSAL OF A NEOTROPICAL NUTMEG (VIROLA SEBIFERA) BY BIRDS HENRY F. HOWE Program in Evolutionary Ecologyand Behavior, Department of Zoology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242 USA Al•ST•CT.--Feeding assemblagesof birds were observedat a Panamanian population of Virola sebifera (Myristicaceae) in order to test the hypothesisthat plants producing especiallynutritious fruits in limited supply should be efficiently dispersedby a small set of obligate frugivores. Virola sebifera producesan encapsulatedarillate seedthat is swallowed by birds shortly after dehiscence. The aril (54% lipid, 7% protein, 8% usable carbohydrate) is retained; the seed is regurgitated intact within 10-30 min. The plant produces 1-96 (Yc= 24) ripe arillate seedseach day, of which 40-89% (Yc= 76%) are taken within a few hours of dawn. The visitor assemblageconsists of six resident frugivores. Three [Chestnut-mandibledToucan (Ramphastosswainsonii), Keel-billed Toucans (R. sulfuratus), and Masked Tityra (Tityra semifasciata)] are "regulars," likely to visit all trees; three [Slaty-tailed Trogon (2•rogonmassena), Rufous Motmot (Baryphthengus martii), and Collared Aracari (Pteroglossustorquatus) are common throughout the Barro Colorado Forest but do not consistently use Virola sebifera. The Chestnut-mandibled Toucan is responsiblefor 43% of the seedsremoved by birds, although it is also responsiblefor more seedwaste (regurgi- tation under the tree crown) than other visitors. Rapid depletion of available fruits each morning and active defense of the crowns by toucans suggest a limited and preferred food resource for "regulars"in the assemblage. A review of recent work indicatesthat the assemblagevisiting Virola sebiferais similar to that frequenting its larger congener (V. surinamensis) but is far smaller and more specialized than those visiting other fruiting trees in the same forest.

E-mail: Abstract: The Rondônia Natural Resources Management Project (PLANAFLORO) was a strategic program developed in partnership between the Brazilian Government and The World Bank in 1992, with the purpose of stimulating the sustainable development and protection of the Amazon in the state of Rondônia. More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State. It is our intention that this information will stimulate future studies and contribute to a better understanding and more effective conservation of the plant diversity in the southwestern Amazon of Brazil. Introduction The PLANAFLORO Project funded botanical expeditions In early 1990, Brazilian Amazon was facing remarkably in different areas of the state to inventory arboreal plants high rates of forest conversion (Laurance et al.

  • A Review of Animal-Mediated Seed Dispersal of Palms
    Selbyana 11: 6-21 A REVIEW OF ANIMAL-MEDIATED SEED DISPERSAL OF PALMS SCOTT ZoNA Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, 1500 North College Avenue, Claremont, California 91711 ANDREW HENDERSON New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458 ABSTRACT. Zoochory is a common mode of dispersal in the Arecaceae (palmae), although little is known about how dispersal has influenced the distributions of most palms. A survey of the literature reveals that many kinds of animals feed on palm fruits and disperse palm seeds. These animals include birds, bats, non-flying mammals, reptiles, insects, and fish. Many morphological features of palm infructescences and fruits (e.g., size, accessibility, bony endocarp) have an influence on the animals which exploit palms, although the nature of this influence is poorly understood. Both obligate and opportunistic frugivores are capable of dispersing seeds. There is little evidence for obligate plant-animaI mutualisms in palm seed dispersal ecology. In spite of a considerable body ofliterature on interactions, an overview is presented here ofthe seed dispersal (Guppy, 1906; Ridley, 1930; van diverse assemblages of animals which feed on der Pijl, 1982), the specifics ofzoochory (animal­ palm fruits along with a brief examination of the mediated seed dispersal) in regard to the palm role fruit and/or infructescence morphology may family have been largely ignored (Uhl & Drans­ play in dispersal and subsequent distributions. field, 1987). Only Beccari (1877) addressed palm seed dispersal specifically; he concluded that few METHODS animals eat palm fruits although the fruits appear adapted to seed dispersal by animals. Dransfield Data for fruit consumption and seed dispersal (198lb) has concluded that palms, in general, were taken from personal observations and the have a low dispersal ability, while Janzen and literature, much of it not primarily concerned Martin (1982) have considered some palms to with palm seed dispersal.

  • Reproductive Success in a Tropical Tree Species, Virola Surinamensis Undergraduate Research Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillm

Determining the driving forces behind this pattern of high diversity in tropical forests has been a question that researchers have been investigating for quite some time. It is thought that violations of the competitive exclusion principle allow for greater diversity (Wright 2002, Connell 1971, Janzen 1970). Tropical tree species violate this principle in different ways and persist in competition against one another through a variety of mechanisms, ultimately, to obtain reproductive success. Reproductive success is when an individual is more successful at surviving and reproducing respective to other individuals of the species (Bergstrom and Dugatkin, 2012). Many different mechanisms can affect reproductive success and many different characteristics can drive these mechanisms. Reproductive success in plants results from a number of processes. Fruit production (the number of seeds that the tree produces initially) is the starting point for measuring reproductive potential. Fruit production in individuals can be affected by factors such as the amount of available resources (e.g., light, water, and nutrients) and competition by the surrounding neighborhood of plants for those resources (Lee and Bazzaz, 1982, Graham and Wright et.

(Chico Mendes) Ao iniciar sua luta mostrando ao mundo uma nova forma de impedir a devastação da floresta, com seus "empates", surgia um novo líder, questionado e combatido por muitos, compreendido por poucos. Passados trinta anos, verifica-se que aqueles empates não foram em vão. Hoje estamos cientes da necessidade de preservarmos mais e melhor, valorizando os Povos da Floresta, verdadeiros guardiões da mata e sua biodiversidade, estes, verdadeiros tesouros passíveis de remuneração e compensação, em busca de um mundo melhor para enfrentar a necessidade de conter o aquecimento global.
