TL;DR: In this paper, the authors made observations at a Ficw tree in the eastern humid forest of Madagascar, where the vertebrate species that visited the tree, estimates of total fruit production and proportion consumed by frugivores, and the chemical analysis of the fruits were presented.
Abstract: Although several authors have recognized that Madagascar has a depauperate frugivore community, little quantitative data is available on this issue. In order to start filling this gap, systematic observations were made at a Ficw tree in the eastern humid forest. Information is presented on the vertebrate species that visited the tree, estimates of total fruit production and proportion consumed by frugivores, and the chemical analysis of the fruits.
