“…The availability of food resources for frugivores in tropical forests is crucial to the maintenance of bird species (Silva, 2022) that, in turn, strongly modulate the continuous fruiting patterns observed at plant community levels in humid tropical forests (Chiarello, 1995;Staggemeier et al, 2010;Costa et al, 2017;Silva et al, 2021). Myrtaceae species, largely demonstrating seasonally flowering in neotropical forests, are especially influenced by photoperiod and temperature (Staggemeier et al, 2010;Orellana et al, 2020;Pereira et al, 2022).…”
