Exploring Social Dominance in Wild Diademed Sifakas (Propithecus diadema): Females Are Dominant, but It Is Subtle and the Benefits Are Not Clear [0.03%]
野生戴冕囊猫狐猴(Propithecus diadema)社会支配性的探索:雌性占优势,但这种优势是微妙的,且其益处并不明显

Rarely observed in mammals, female dominance is documented in several of Madagascar's lemurs. Although dominance affects many aspects of primates' lives, studies have largely focused on dyadic agonistic interactions to characterise relation...
How Target Animacy Affects Manual Laterality in Hylobatidae: The First Evidence in Northern White-Cheeked Gibbons (Nomascus leucogenys) [0.03%]
目标有生性如何影响类人科动物的手动 lateralities:北部白颊长臂猿(nomascus leucogenys)的首个证据

Our study presents the first evidence on how target animacy impacts on manual laterality in the Hylobatidae and contributes to filling the knowledge gap between monkeys and great apes in primate evolution of emotional lateralization. Eleven...
Effect of Group Size on Time Budgets and Ranging Behavior of White-Headed Langurs in Limestone Forest, Southwest China [0.03%]
中国西南地区喀斯特森林中白头叶猴群体大小对其时间预算和活动范围的影响

Kechu Zhang et al.
The ecological constraints model is well supported by data from most frugivorous primates; however, the prediction power of the model is weak for folivorous primates. From September 2016 to August 2017, we collected comparative data on time...
Positional Behaviours of François' Langur (Trachypithecus francoisi) in the Limestone Forest of Nonggang, Guangxi, South-West China [0.03%]
广西弄岗峰林生态系统 Francois langur (Trachypithecus francoisi) 的定位行为研究

Ting Chen et al.
Primates' positional behaviours provide information for understanding relationships among morphology, ecology and behavioural flexibility. From September 2005 to August 2006, we collected data via instantaneous scan sampling on positional b...
A Novel Method for Assessing Enamel Thickness Distribution in the Anterior Dentition as a Signal for Gouging and Other Extractive Foraging Behaviors in Gummivorous Mammals [0.03%]
一种评估灵长类动物前牙釉质厚度分布的新方法及其在觅食行为研究中的应用信号
Keegan R Selig,Sergi López-Torres,Adam Hartstone-Rose et al.
Keegan R Selig et al.
Gummivory poses unique challenges to the dentition as gum acquisition may often require that the anterior teeth be adapted to retain a sharp edge and to resist loading because they sometimes must penetrate a highly obdurate substrate during...
Anomalous Pigmentation in Invasive and Native Marmosets, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix penicillata (Primates, Callitrichidae), and Their Hybrids in Brazil [0.03%]
巴西入侵种和本地狨(狨科)及其杂交种的异常着色现象:以卡力特里克斯侏儒狨和黑领绒毛狨为例

Izar Aximoff et al.
Leucism is the lack or reduction in pigmentation in the most or parts of the body, but not in the eyes and body extremities. It is extremely rare in primates and has never been reported for Callithrix, a genus endemic to Brazil. We searched...
Species Identification and Unlocking Hidden Genetic Diversity of Confiscated Slow Lorises (Nycticebus spp.) Based on Mitochondrial DNA Markers [0.03%]
基于线粒体DNA标记鉴别穿山甲种属及揭示其潜在基因多样性

Chalita Kongrit et al.
Confiscated slow lorises (Nycticebus spp.) at Bangpra Water-Bird Breeding Center (BWBC) in Thailand provided an opportunity to demonstrate the application of noninvasive genetic approaches for species identification when morphology of the a...

Great progress has been made in unravelling the evolutionary history of Asian colobines, largely through the use of dated molecular phylogenies based on multiple markers. The Presbytis langurs are a case in point, with more allopatric speci...
Lemurs in Cacao: Presence and Abundance within the Shade Plantations of Northern Madagascar [0.03%]
马拉加北部阴影种植园内的狐猴:存在与繁茂程度

Amanda D Webber et al.
The recognition that much biodiversity exists outside protected areas is driving research to understand how animals survive in anthropogenic landscapes. In Madagascar, cacao (Theobroma cacao) is grown under a mix of native and exotic shade ...
Does Oxygen Stable Isotope Composition in Primates Vary as a Function of Vertical Stratification or Folivorous Behaviour? [0.03%]
灵长目动物氧稳定同位素组成是否会随垂直分层或食叶行为而变化?
Luke D Fannin,W Scott McGraw
Luke D Fannin
Stable isotopes of oxygen often vary within a community of primates. For example, folivorous monkeys that forage in the upper reaches of the forest canopy tend to evince high δ18O values, whereas those that prefer the understory tend to ha...
