Distances of Attalea dubia fruit/seed dispersal by rodents in an Atlantic Forest in southeast Brazil (n = 46 records of recovered fruits/seeds) (a). Number of seedlings (n = 18; black bars) and juveniles (n = 88; white bars) in relation to the distance to the nearest adult palm (b). The numbers above bars are juvenile/seedling ratios at a given distance class. For both graphs, distances are truncated to 20 m to enable visual comparisons (see text for details).
