Ligo et al (2024aLigo et al ( , 2024b compiled 48 bat-fruit mutualistic networks and show how human impact and precipitation are major forces structuring these mutualistic networks along a latitudinal gradient in the Neotropics. This study also highlights how the undersampling of many tropical biomes reduces our ability to generalize and reach wide-ranging conclusions on the structure of mutualistic networks.…”
