Degraded areas are generally colonized by native pioneer species which are replaced by late successional native species over time; however, many exotic species may take advantage of these disturbances. Pioneer species have great potential to alter future community structure by creating microhabitat heterogeneity and influencing processes of seed predation. We have investigated how patterns of seed predation and removal of Araucaria angustifolia (native species) and Pinus taeda (exotic species) can be altered in distinct microhabitats composed of native pioneer species. In a degraded area we introduced seeds of Pinus and Araucaria in three microhabitats: open area, under Baccharis uncinella crown and under Vernonia discolor crown. For each m...
