Database on seed dispersal and seed handling by brown howlers (Alouatta guariba clamitans) in six Atlantic Forest fragments

This database is derived from a 36-months fieldwork study assessing the role of six groups of brown howler monkeys (Alouatta guariba clamitans) as seed dispersers in Atlantic forest fragments in southern Brazil. We used this database to elaborate the following work: " High diversity of dispersed seeds reveals the essential role of a large arboreal frugivore in the regeneration of highly threatened Atlantic forest fragments"本数据库源自一项为期36个月的野外调查研究，该研究旨在评估巴西南部大西洋森林片段生境中6群棕吼猴（Alouatta guariba clamitans）作为种子传播者所发挥的生态作用。本研究团队依托该数据库完成了下述研究成果：《扩散种子的高多样性揭示大型树栖食果动物在高度受威胁的大西洋森林片段生境恢复中的核心作用》
