. The Ecology of arboreal folivores : a symposium held at the Conservation and Research Center, National Zoological Park, Smithsonian Institution, May 29-31, 1975 . FRUIT, FLOWERS, Etc. Figure 3. Feeding specializations for selected mammalian herbi- vores. Terrestrial grazers and browsers (folivores) can be separated into relatively distinct categories. The arboreal folivores as a set intergrade with arboreal species adapted for feeding on varying amounts of fruit and other plant parts. Seasonal variations in dietary intake are averaged. Percentages are based on either time spent feeding (Hladik and Hladik, 1969), actual stomach con- tents (Hofmann and Stewart, 1972), or actual weights of food consumed (NZP records). References consulted include Trippensee, 1948; Hladik and Hladik, 1969, 1972; Montgomery and Sunquist, 1975; Dunbar and Dunbar, 1974; Hofmann and Stewart, 1972; and unpublished records from the National Zoological Park.
