Feeding ecology and competition for food in two Philippine hornbill species (Bucerotidae; \(\textit \Aceros waldeni, Penelopides panini\\)) in the breeding season [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
This research presents various ecological aspects with main focus on the feeding ecology of two Philippine hornbills. Both hornbills had overlap in nest tree species. The Dulungan used bigger trees and higher nests than the Tarictic. The nest hole entrances were evenly distributed in all directions. Both species differed in dispersion pattern. The population of 1787 breeding pairs of the Dulungan and 2333 of the Tarictic was estimated. Both hornbills used 52 fruit species, with 83% overlap. Intraspecific nearest neighbour food overlap for both species ranged from 0-100%. Interspecific food overlap did not exceed 66%. There was a negative correlation between nearest neighbour distance and food overlap. Breeding time from March to July, varied between and within species. There is a need to continue conservation measures.
