Paleocene wind-dispersed fruits and seeds from Colombia and their implications for early Neotropical rainforests
Extant Neotropical rainforests are well known for their remarkable diversity of fruit and seed types.Biotic agents disperse most of these disseminules, whereas wind dispersal is less common.Although wind-dispersed fruits and seeds are greatly overshadowed in closed rainforests, Collections many important families in the Neotropics (e.g., Bignoniace
