Abstract

Numerosas especies amazónicas productoras de frutos de utilidad económica han sido explotadas intensamente por lo cual las poblaciones silvestres se redujeron drásticamente. Theobroma speciosum es una especie importante, ya que proporciona frutos para roedores y primates y también tiene un gran potencial económico pues puede servir como fuente de variedad genética para especies relacionadas que se explotan económicamente como T. cacao. Se presenta aquí por primera vez la dispersión de semillas de T. speciosum por S. apella, Mico argentatus (Primates) y G. aestuans (Rodentia). La información es útil para desarrollar estrategias de conservación de este cacao silvestre en fragmentos remanentes de los bosques de la Amazonia oriental
