Buchenavia ochroprumna, Combretaceae, is a common species in Jaú National Park igapós, whose leaves have been target of both unidentified nymphalid caterpillars and monkeys Cacajao oucakary, Pitheciidae, during flooding season every year. However, C. ouakary shows strong selection for trees not being fed on by caterpillars and strong rejection of those with caterpillars feeding upon them. A variety of studies have found leaf quality in plants after herbivore attacks. Consequently, the current study proposed to investigate whether caterpillars infestation changed chemical aspects of B. ochroprumna in ways could explain C. ouakary’s preference for those trees lacking caterpillars. To test whether the effects of caterpillars herbivory ...
