consumption of 0.7-5.4 g m-2 yr'l (21-154 kJ mn2 yr-1) or 8-61% of the annual endosperm production (average about 36%). Natural reproduction was definitely unsuccessful. The potential food resource (endosperms) for granivorous heterotrophs in the forest floor represented 1-34 g m-2 yr-1 (30-961 kJ m-2 yr-1), however, apparently postdispersal seed predation was extremely low. In 1974 about 5 % of the seed production were utilized in predispersal seed predation, whereas 90-95% entered the detritus pathway; the importance of the latter channel in the flow pattern of seed borne energy and the effect of predispersal seed predation in the research site are emphasized.
