Remarks

Eponymy: I am pleased to dedicate this species to Prof. Dr. Ir. R.A.A. Oldeman with whom I have collaborated since 1980. Among many other issues, he particularly inspired me early on to focus fieldwork on the role vertebrates play as dispersers and predators of seeds and seedlings and their impact on the composition and structure of Neotropical rain forest
