Birds & seed dispersal data set
Abstract
This data is the basis for a literature review about the changing role of frugivorous birds as seed dispersers, especially in moist tropical and subtropical forests. The data provides a secondary information source that consists of compiled values of gape width, body mass, and degree of dependence of fruit in the diet, for 205 frugivorous bird species drawn from studies of community ecology.
