Phenology and phylogeny of animal-dispersed plants in a Dry Chaco forest (Argentina)

Phenological patterns of dry tropical forests have been related to environmental factors, mainly rainfall and insolation, and to plant endogenous rhythms inherent to trees as large, perennial plants. Superimposed to these environmental ('external hypothesis') and intrinsic ('endogenou...
