This dataset includes morphological trait measurements of all plant species recorded on the study sites of Mt. Kilimanjaro. We measured traits related to size and supply of the fruits. For instance, the size and shape of a fruit determines which species may successfully exploit it. Additionally, the forest stratum in which plants display their fruits will attract a specific range of species. The data was collected in the field from 3 individuals for each species.
For each plant species, where birds fed on the fruits, fruits were measured to look at the morphological trait-space. 15 fruit per plant were measured. Ideally this meant 5 fruit from 3 plant individuals respectively. This was not possible for each plant species.
