Testing for enemy-mediated density-dependence in the mortality of seedlings: Field experiments with five Neotropical tree species

The coexistence of plant species in species-rich tropical forests can be promoted by specialised enemies acting in a negatively density-dependent manner. While survival of tropical tree seedlings is often negatively density-dependent, the causes have rarely been identified. We tested whether insects...
