Distribution of myrmecochorous species over the landscape and their potential long-distance dispersal by emus and kangaroos

Topographical heterogeneity can create a mosaic of substrate types leading to the formation of isolated plant populations. Seed dispersal then becomes crucial for the colonization of such suitable but remote substrate types. We surveyed the distribution of seven elaiosome-bearing species (myrmecocho...
