We have updated the species profiles from the 2012–2014 edition (Schwitzer et al. 2014) for those species remaining on the list, and added profiles for newly listed species. This publication is a joint effort of the IUCN SSC Primate Specialist Group, the International Primatological Society, Conservation International, and the Bristol Zoological Society. We are most grateful to the Margot Marsh Biodiversity Foundation for providing significant support for research and conservation efforts on these endangered primates through the direct provision of grants and through the Primate Action Fund, administered by Ms. Ella Outlaw and Anthony Rylands of the Executive Vice Chair’s Office at Conservation International. Over the years, the foundation has provided support for the training workshops held before the biennial congresses of the International Primatological Society and helped primatologists to attend the meetings to discuss the composition of the list of the world’s 25 most endangered primates.

  • The Evolution of the Lepilemuridae-Cheirogaleidae Clade
    The evolution of the Lepilemuridae-Cheirogaleidae clade By Curswan Allan Andrews Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In the Faculty of SCIENCE at the NELSON MANDELA UNIVERSITY Promoters Prof. Judith C. Masters Dr. Fabien G.S. Génin Prof. Graham I.H. Kerley April 2019 1 i Dedication To my mothers’ Cecelia Andrews & Johanna Cloete ii DECLARATION FULL NAME: Curswan Allan Andrews STUDENT NUMBER: 214372952 QUALIFICATION: Doctor of Philosophy DECLARATION: In accordance with Rule G5.6.3, I hereby declare that the above-mentioned thesis is my own work and that it has not previously been submitted for assessment to another University or for another qualification. Signature ________________ Curswan Andrews iii ABSTRACT The Lepilemuridae and the Cheirogaleidae, according to recent molecular reconstructions, share a more recent common ancestor than previously thought. Further phylogenetic reconstructions have indicated that body size evolution in this clade was marked by repeated dwarfing events that coincided with changes in the environment. I aimed to investigate the morphological implications of changes in body size within the Lepilemur-cheirogaleid clade, testing four predictions. Together with Dr. Couette, I collected data on the overall palate shape and predicted that shape is likely to be influenced by several factors including phylogeny, body size and diet. Geometric morphometric analyses revealed that, although a strong phylogenetic signal was detected, diet had the major effect on palate shape. In a similar vein, when examining the arterial circulation patterns in these taxa, I predicted that changes in body size would result in changes and possible reductions in arterial size, particularly the internal carotid artery (ICA) and stapedial artery (SA).

  • Diets of Howler Monkeys
    Chapter 2 Diets of Howler Monkeys Pedro Américo D. Dias and Ariadna Rangel-Negrín Abstract Based on a bibliographical review, we examined the diets of howler mon- keys to compile a comprehensive overview of their food resources and document dietary diversity. Additionally, we analyzed the effects of rainfall, group size, and forest size on dietary variation. Howlers eat nearly all available plant parts in their habitats. Time dedicated to the consumption of different food types varies among species and populations, such that feeding behavior can range from high folivory to high frugivory. Overall, howlers were found to use at least 1,165 plant species, belonging to 479 genera and 111 families as food sources. Similarity in the use of plant taxa as food sources (assessed with the Jaccard index) is higher within than between howler species, although variation in similarity is higher within species. Rainfall patterns, group size, and forest size affect several dimensions of the dietary habits of howlers, such that, for instance, the degree of frugivory increases with increased rainfall and habitat size, but decreases with increasing group size in groups that live in more productive habitats. Moreover, the range of variation in dietary habits correlates positively with variation in rainfall, suggesting that some howler species are habitat generalists and have more variable diets, whereas others are habi- tat specialists and tend to concentrate their diets on certain plant parts. Our results highlight the high degree of dietary fl exibility demonstrated by the genus Alouatta and provide new insights for future research on howler foraging strategies. Resumen Con base en una revisión bibliográfi ca, examinamos las dietas de los monos aulladores para describir exhaustivamente sus recursos alimenticios y la diversidad de su dieta.

MARCELLA AND ELFATIH A. B. ELTAHIR Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts (Manuscript received 15 February 2013, in final form 7 July 2013) ABSTRACT This article presents a new irrigation scheme and biome to the dynamic vegetation model, Integrated Biosphere Simulator (IBIS), coupled to version 3 of the Regional Climate Model (RegCM3-IBIS). The new land cover allows for only the plant functional type (crop) to exist in an irrigated grid cell. Irrigation water (i.e., negative runoff) is applied until the soil root zone reaches relative field capacity. The new scheme allows for irrigation scheduling (i.e., when to apply water) and for the user to determine the crop to be grown.

It would be equally surprising for you to see a Polar Bear ambling down the street on your walk to school in the morning. In the Amazon, the i2P team is unlikely to discover a new species of tropical Polar Bear. Polar Bears are adapted to life in cold environments and would not last long in the tropics. Like the Polar Bear, most species of life are adapted to live in very specific habitats. Camels can survive long spells without water, Coconut Palms need a great deal of heat, and Penguins survive best in the cold. Each species is adapted to survive in a specific habitat or niche. As a consequence there is a patchwork distribution of different species of life across the world, each possessing unique traits that allow them to Figure 1: Polar Bear, unlikely to be moving to the tropics survive in their native habitat. soon(source: US Fish & Wildlife). The distribution of life on Earth however is not equal. There are some environments such as the Amazon Rainforest that enjoy a relative abundance of life.

CROGNALE,§ MAUREEN NEITZT Received 6 November 1992; in revised form 3 February 1993 The owl monkey (Aotus tridrgutus) is the only nocturnal monkey. The photopigments of Aotus and the relationship between these photopigments and visual discrimination were examined through (1) an analysis of the tlicker photometric electroretinogram (ERG), (2) psychophysical tests of visual sensitivity and color vision, and (3) a search for the presence of the photopigment gene necessary for the production of a short-wavelength sensitive (SWS) photopigment. Roth electrophysiological and behavioral measurements indicate that in addition to a rod photopigment the retina of this primate contains only one other photopigment type-a cone pigment having a spectral peak cu 543 nm. Earlier results that suggested these monkeys can make crude color discriminations are interpreted as probably resulting from the joint exploitation of signals from rods and cones. Although Aotus has no functional SWS photopigment, hybridization analysis shows that A&us has a pigment gene that is highly homologous to the human SWS photopigment gene.
