Thir- teen families were represented by a single species and 4 by a single tree. There were 20 dioecious tree species comprising 10 percent (170) of the total trees in the area. An attempt was made to determine the sex of each dioecious tree. Group 1 fed on the fruit of the fol- lowing dioecious species: Chlorophora tinctoria, Cecropia peltata, Coccoloba caracasana, Simarouba glauca, Spondias mombin, S. nigrescens. The indi- viduals of C. tinctoria (3 of 6) were equally divided between males and females, but C. peltata (1 of 3), C. caracasana (1 of 9), and S. glauca (1 of 4) had only 1 female each. S. mombin (9 of 12) and S. nigrescens (7 of 9) had more females than males. Habitat utilization and day range In two-dimensional terms the home range of Group 1 consisted of 98,850 sq m ( ha).
