Columnar Cacti and Their Mutualists : Evolution, Ecology, and Conservation /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

A collection of writings on the ecology, evolution, and conservation of columnar cacti and their vertebrate mutualists, demonstrating that the survival of these cacti depends on animals who pollinate them and disperse their seeds.
