Atlantic Forest primates and their main food resources
Primates are arboreal and semi-arboreal species, highly dependent on vascular plants. Primate diets typically include plant parts, such as fruits and leaves. Knowledge of the most consumed items is essential for this highly threatened group, especially in the deforested and fragmented Atlantic Forest.
Our aim was to synthesise the knowledge about food resources of Atlantic Forest primates. We investigated the temporal and spatial distribution of studies with information on diet, the main taxa recorded as food resources, and the parts of plants most consumed by these primates.
We searched for published literature containing food resource records for primates in the Web of Science and screened Neotropical Primates volumes.
96% of the food records were from plants, mainly fruits (50%), leaves (31%) and flowers (14%). Most plant species, genera and families have few records. The families most recorded were Myrtaceae (n = 440) and Fabaceae (n = 392), and the genera were Eugenia (n = 123), Inga (n = 113), Ficus (n = 109) and Myrcia (n = 102). A few primate species with long-standing conservation programs or population monitoring had the highest number of food resource records. Study sites generally cover only a small part of the geographic range of the primate species, indicating a geographic bias.
Our findings highlight the scarcity of research on the Atlantic Forest primate diet, which is especially concerning for threatened species such as Callithrix aurita and Leontopithecus caissara, which only had natural history notes on food resources, and Sapajus robustus, which had no records.
The information synthesised here can be useful for planning and executing more efficient Atlantic Forest restoration plans, considering the key plant species for the primate diet. We reinforce the need to conduct more research on the diets of Atlantic Forest primates, as this knowledge can contribute to the understanding of the plasticity and physiology of organisms.
期刊介绍:
Mammal Review is the official scientific periodical of the Mammal Society, and covers all aspects of mammalian biology and ecology, including behavioural ecology, biogeography, conservation, ecology, ethology, evolution, genetics, human ecology, management, morphology, and taxonomy. We publish Reviews drawing together information from various sources in the public domain for a new synthesis or analysis of mammalian biology; Predictive Reviews using quantitative models to provide insights into mammalian biology; Perspectives presenting original views on any aspect of mammalian biology; Comments in response to papers published in Mammal Review; and Short Communications describing new findings or methods in mammalian biology.
