This seed dispersal process plays a crucial role in the survival of the island’s plant species, the maintenance of high plant diversity, and the integrity of the forest ecosystem. Onja Razafindratsima will discuss the role and impact of lemur seed dispersal on plants in Madagascar’s rainforests on multiple levels. </p><div>	Free parking is available at the <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/52%20Oxford%20St,%20Harvard%20University,%20Cambridge,%20MA%2002138/@42.3801645,-71.1153057,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x89e37740a3c56959:0xe17bf20973449411">52 Oxford Street Garage</a>.</div><div>	Free and open to the public. </div>
