		Red deer faeces has recently been found to contain large numbers of seeds from one of the most common shrubs of this group, gum cistus (Cistus ladanifer), although its importance in the reproduction of the species is unknown.
		Though no seedling survived its first summer drought, the survival of seedlings sprouted from dung was significantly longer than that of control seedlings in the first and third years after deposition, and indistinguishable from it the second, fourth and fifth years.
		This is the first quantification of the importance of red deer to Cistus ladanifer dispersal and establishment, and suggests that endozoochory by mammalian herbivores can be very valuable for dry-fruited shrubs in the Mediterranean region.

		The influence of high temperatures on germination of Cistus laurifolius and Cistus ladanifer seeds was analyzed.
		Seeds were subjected to different temperatures for different times, afterwards they were sowed in plastic petri dishes and monitored for germinated seeds over two months.The germination rate observed in Cistus ldanifer was greater than in Cistus laurifolius.
		Germination percentages of Cistus ladanifer were lower when heat exposure time was 15 minutes.It must be emphasized that germination occurred when seeds were not treated, while seeds exposed to 150°C for 5 minutes or more did not germinate.
