DISPERSIÓN SECUNDARIA DE SEMILLAS POR ESCARABAJOS COPRÓFAGOS (SCARABAEIDAE) A PARTIR DE HECES DE CHURUCOS (LAGOTHRIX LAGOTHRICHA) EN EL PARQUE NACIONAL TINIGUA, COLOMBIA

The activity of dung beetles (Scarabaeidae) associated with woolly monkey (Lagothrix lagothricha) dung, assecondary seed dispersal agents, was studied in Tinigua National Park, Meta, Colombia. From 62 dung sampleswe estimated a mean range of 30-33 small seeds, 3-5 medium seeds and 0-1 large seeds by...
