The fossil wood occurs in pieces ranging in size from twigs and branchlets to large trunks over a metre in diameter and even stumps. Thus, f or each species 160 twigs were selected to represent the whole plant canopy. Scale insects were collected from different parts of each tree, such as the apical and lower parts of twigs and the main stem. The miscellaneous fraction contained twigs, fruits and flowers. Stevens (1987) suggests that lianas impact host canopies by constricting growing twigs and branches and reducing fecundity. Six erect twigs were selected from naturally occurring plants growing in three contrasting light environments. Diameters of branches and twigs were measured as traversed by a randomly positioned 2-m-length straight-line transect marked out with string. From each tree, two 20 cm twigs (c. 3-5 mm in diameter), each bearing at least ten leaves, were selected from the middle canopy (c. 1.5 m high).

We collected leaf litter from the home ranges of colonies by removing all decomposing leaves, twigs, seeds, seed pods, and organic material, though we did not collect wooden debris. After the collection of fresh leaves some twigs of each individual were covered with cloth bags (2 mm mesh) to collect the leaves after senescence and abscission. When analysing the ratio of deep to shallow feeding a value of 0.0001 (4 twigs) or 0.00001 (2 twigs) was added to a single zero value for shallow feeding. Sampling units from each selected tree comprised two infested twigs, c. 40 cm long and 2-5 mm in diameter, each bearing at least two infested fruits and ten leaves. The treatment plants with 25% total leaf area removal did not differ significantly in the production of new twigs and growth in trunk diameter as compared with the control.
