摘要: Two species of wood mouse, Apodemus argenteus and A. speciosus, were observed consuming hoarding acorns Quercus serrata Castanopsis cuspidata. When each acorn was supplied individually, both mice used for eating hoarding. supplied, consumed or hoarded only C. cuspidata, whereas speciosus tended to eat cuspidata at the feeding site, disperse hoard Q. acorns. is unlikely (their utilization biased towards consumption) when are also available. will make almost no contribution dispersal two coexist.
