What is it about?
Our results illustrate the utility of model-based prediction of interaction networks as well as model-based identification of keystone species as a tool for prioritizing conservation efforts.

Why is it important?
We highlight the importance of understanding the fragmentation-in- duced compositional shifts in seed disperser communities as they may lead to lagged and multiplicative effects on tree communities.
Perspectives
Similar modelling approaches could be applied to other threatened ecosystems and interaction types globally.
