The object of the present Catalogue is to give a list of all the genera and species of the Monkeys, Lemurs, Colugoes, and Frugivorous Bats in the British-Museum Collection,- with references to other species described from other collections. The letters B.M. after a specific name denote the species that are now contained in the Collection and the absence of those letters indicates the species which are desi- derata, and therefore desirable to be procured for the Collection. The woodcuts arc the same as wcro prepared to illustrate papers published in the ' Proceedings of the Zoological Society,' which are kindly lent by the Council of that Society for the purpose. These sheets were printed in 18G7, when the printing was inter- rupted by my ill health, and have been detained in the hope that I should be able to revise the remainder of the manuscript, which I still hope to print in a separate part at a future time.

In addition, wild-type TTR causes senile systemic amyloidosis, a sporadic disease seen in the elderly. Although spontaneous development of TTR amyloidosis had not been reported in animals other than humans, we recently determined that two aged vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) spontaneously developed systemic TTR amyloidosis. In this study here, we first determined that aged vervet monkeys developed TTR amyloidosis and showed cardiac dysfunction but other primates did not. We also found that vervet monkeys had the TTR Ile122 allele, which is well known as a frequent mutation-causing human TTR amyloidosis. Furthermore, we generated recombinant monkey TTRs and determined that the vervet monkey TTR had lower tetrameric stability and formed more amyloid fibrils than did cynomolgus monkey TTR, which had the Val122 allele. We thus propose that the Ile122 allele has an important role in TTR amyloidosis in the aged vervet monkey and that this monkey can serve as a valid pathological model of the human disease. Finally, from the viewpoint of molecular evolution of TTR in primates, we determined that human TTR mutations causing the leptomeningeal phenotype of TTR amyloidosis tended to occur in amino acid residues that showed no diversity throughout primate evolution.

Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL August 2019 Copyright 2019 by Ashley M. Lyon ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my mother, grandmother, and my love, Ian. I could not have done any of this without your love and support. The mountains have been tall and treacherous, the valleys have been few, and I know I would have never made it across without you. To my loves Sassy, Dracula, June, and Dolly- thank you for the unconditional love, comfort, and warmth. To the doctors, nurses, and medical staff at The Cleveland Clinic Florida, and especially the radiologist at Windsor Imaging Fort Lauderdale that caught the tumor before it spread, thank you for saving my life. I did not expect to get cancer in grad school, but I beat it with the excellent care and support I received. Last, but certainly not least, I’d like to thank my FAU family, especially those in the anthropology, biology, and GIS departments. Thank you to my cohort for the endless hours of laughter and joy. I found family and comradery away from home. Thank you to my professors for the knowledge you bestowed upon me. Thank you to the anthropology department for all the support, especially when I was going through cancer treatment.

Cercocebus albigena, Cercopithecus mitis and Cercopithecus mona are strictly arboreal whereas Cercocebus torquatus, Cercocebus galeritus and Cercopithecus aethiops are more frequently utilize terrestrial substrates. Morphological differences, which presumably reflect different positional behaviors, were found within both Cercocebus and Cercopithecus genera. The arboreal Cercocebus albigena differs from the more terrestrial Cercocebus torquatus and Cercocebus galeritus in having more mobile joints and more gracile bones. In Cercocebus torquatus and Cercocebus galeritus, joint movements tends to be restricted to the parasagittal plane emphasizing the economy of parasagittal excursion of the limbs. Similar tendencies were observed between the arboreal Cercopithecus mitis and Cercopithecus mona and the semi-terrestrial Cercopithecus aethiops. However, the morphological distinctions, associated to arboreality vs. terrestriality, are not identical between Cercocebus and Cercopithecus. Semi-terrestrial mangabeys exhibit stronger adaptations for terrestriality by comparison with the semi-terrestrial guenon.

  • Confirmation of the Presence of the Red-Capped Mangabey (Cercocebus Torquatus) in Mayumba National Park, Southern Gabon, And
    Primate Conservation 2007 (22): 111–115 Confirmation of the Presence of the Red-capped Mangabey (Cercocebus torquatus) in Mayumba National Park, Southern Gabon, and Conkouati-Douli National Park, Southern Republic of Congo Fiona Maisels¹, Quevain Pambou Makaya² and Jean-Robert Onononga³ ¹Wildlife Conservation Society, Bronx, New York, USA ²Wildlife Conservation Society, Gabon, Libreville ³Wildlife Conservation Society, Brazzaville, Congo Abstract: Surveys were carried out in Gabon in Mayumba National Park in 2006 and in the Conkouati-Douli National Park in the Republic of Congo in 1996 and 2000. Red-capped mangabeys, Cercocebus torquatus, (also known as white-collared mangabeys) were recorded in both parks in areas about 30 km distant from hunting pressure. The distribution of this species is known to extend from west of the Niger River to just south of the Ogooué River in Gabon, but its presence in Southern Congo, while suspected in 1949, had never been confirmed. These observations extend the confirmed published range by about 250 km south, and into the Republic of Congo. The published distribution is probably much too uniform, as the species now appears to be absent in areas with even low to medium hunting pressure. We call for resurveys of the sites where it has been previously recorded in the past to confirm continued presence and to clarify its conservation status. We also call for surveys along the coastal forests outside protected areas, especially within Gabon, to identify remaining populations. Résumé: Les recensements de la faune ont été menés au Gabon dans le Parc National de Mayumba en 2006 et dans le Parc National de Conkouati-Douli en République du Congo en 1996, puis en 2000.

  • Chapter 15 the Mammals of Angola
    Chapter 15 The Mammals of Angola Pedro Beja, Pedro Vaz Pinto, Luís Veríssimo, Elena Bersacola, Ezequiel Fabiano, Jorge M. Palmeirim, Ara Monadjem, Pedro Monterroso, Magdalena S. Svensson, and Peter John Taylor Abstract Scientific investigations on the mammals of Angola started over 150 years ago, but information remains scarce and scattered, with only one recent published account. Here we provide a synthesis of the mammals of Angola based on a thorough survey of primary and grey literature, as well as recent unpublished records. We present a short history of mammal research, and provide brief information on each species known to occur in the country. Particular attention is given to endemic and near endemic species. We also provide a zoogeographic outline and information on the conservation of Angolan mammals. We found confirmed records for 291 native species, most of which from the orders Rodentia (85), Chiroptera (73), Carnivora (39), and Cetartiodactyla (33). There is a large number of endemic and near endemic species, most of which are rodents or bats. The large diversity of species is favoured by the wide P.

Yet, this characterization of genetic diversity is not only critical for a better 23 understanding of their own history, but also for human biomedical research given that 24 they are one of the most widely used primate models. Here, I analyze the demographic 25 and selective history of the African green monkey, utilizing one of the most 26 comprehensive catalogs of wild genetic diversity to date, consisting of 1,795,643 27 autosomal single nucleotide polymorphisms in 25 individuals, representing all five 28 major populations: C.
