Activity patterns of terrestrial frugivorous mammals in a Mexican Neotropical forest

Abstract: Fruits reaching the floor of tropical forests constitute an attractive resource for a variety of mammals. Study of the characteristics of the frugivory interaction can help to advance in the understanding of the mechanisms favoring animal's coexistence. However, there are few studies focused on analyzing patterns of activity of mammals feeding on fruits in the forest floor. Camera traps were used to record consumption of Licania platypus and Pouteria sapota fruits by Cuniculus paca, Dasyprocta punctata, Nasua … Show more

“…Se indican el número de episodios independientes de 60 minutos (IE), la media y la desviación estándar circular (SD) de los vectores de actividad de cada especie. Los intervalos de confianza (CI) y la prueba de Rao (U) se calibraron a un alfa = 0,05. previous studies in the tropical rainforests of Mexico (Mendoza et al, 2019), Panamá (Suselbeek et al, 2014), the Brazilian Amazon (Gómez et al, 2005), and the Central Andes of Colombia (García-R. et al, 2019). This diurnal behaviour in Central American agoutis could increase its success in searching for seeds while avoiding the midday heat (Suselbeek et al, 2014;Duquette et al, 2017).…”
