“…Consequently, like other frugivores, frugivorous birds are important for the forest dynamics and the evolution of biodiversity (e.g. Robinson & Handel, 1993;Curran & Webb, 2000;Wenny, 2000;Levey et al, 2002;Forget et al, 2002). It is therefore not surprising that during the last decades a quite abundant and still growing literature has been devoted to the analysis of ecological and evolutionary consequences of plant-frugivore interactions (see reviews by Howe, 1986;Willson, 1986;Fleming et al, 1987;Howe & Westley, 1988;Fleming, 1991;Jordano, 1992;Fleming & Estrada, 1993;Cipollini, 2000;Levey et al, 2002, Forget et al, 2002Herrera & Pellmyr, 2002).…”
