This dataset contains compiled Fruit, seed dispersal, and life history traits of tropical rainforest trees of the Anamalai Hills, Western Ghats, India. The list of species included are from the following two related publications: - Muthuramkumar, S., Ayyappan, N., Parthasarathy, N., Mudappa, D., Raman, T.R.S., Selwyn, M.A. and Pragasan, L.A. (2006), Plant Community Structure in Tropical Rain Forest Fragments of the Western Ghats, India.

Journal of Tropical Ecology, 33(4), 270-284. doi:10.1017/S0266467417000219 The present dataset is an expanded and updated version of the related dataset available at https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.vd0nn Species traits information was collated from BIOTIK (http://www.biotik.org/), Flowers of India (http://www.flowersofindia.net/), India Biodiversity Portal (http://indiabiodiversity.org/), Global wood density database (https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.234/1) and Osuri et al. (2014): https://doi.org/10.1017/S0266467417000219. We also referred to the following previous studies that provided information on the successional status of rain-forest species in the Western Ghats (Chetana 2013, Pascal 1988, Raman et al. 2009, Sreejith 2005).
