The intensity of seed predation was very high when compared to other studies in continuous forest, perhaps resulting from a scarcity of resources in such areas. This scarcity may limit the range of parrot's diet to a few plant species. It suggests that studies of Psittacidae seed predation may be important for conservation of some plants in fragments.613-615engAtlantic forestBrazilbrotogeris versicolumsforest fiagmentationPseudobombax grandiflorumPsittacidaeseed predationArtigo10.1111/j.1744-7429.2002.tb00582.xWOS:000180539800016Acesso restrito
