Below is a list of seeds that Ryan Malloy, Martha Garro Cruz, Guadalupe Cruz Rodriguez and I collected from seed traps and from mist-netted birds in the vicinity of Monteverde, Costa Rica, in 2012-13. Also included are species that we collected as voucher specimens but did not recover from seed traps or mist nets. Photos of the seeds can be seen by clicking on the species name. This database provides information about the date, site, and source of the seeds (seed trap versus collection from a particular mist-netted bird species). Identifications were carried out using Greg Murray’s seed collection as well as vouchers collected in 2012-13 and identified by local experts including Lucas Ramirez and Nelson Zamora. More details can be found in our 2017 Biotropica paper.
