Responses of a Translocated Howler Monkey Alouatta Palliata Group to New Environmental Conditions
Vol. 12: 25–30, 2010 ENDANGERED SPECIES RESEARCH Published online June 4 doi: 10.3354/esr00287 Endang Species Res Contribution to the Theme Section ‘Responses of animals to habitat alteration’ OPENPEN ACCESSCCESS Responses of a translocated howler monkey Alouatta palliata group to new environmental conditions Aralisa Shedden-González*, Ernesto Rodríguez-Luna Centro de Investigaciones Tropicales, Universidad Veracruzana, Exhacienda Lucas Martín, Calle Araucarias s/n, Col. Periodistas C.P. 91019 Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico ABSTRACT: Considering the drastic changes in primate habitats, we must search for management strategies to maintain primate populations in the wild. In the present study, a group of howler mon- keys Alouatta palliata was followed after being translocated to a 90 ha tropical forest used for under- story palm Chamaedorea elegans cultivation. The group’s behavior was recorded in the new environ- ment. There was no evidence of behavioral alterations due to the different habitat conditions, the translocation process or the palm cultivation activities at the release site. These results indicate that reintroduction, even to fragments used for cultivation purposes, is a viable conservation approach for howler monkey conservation in the Los Tuxtlas region of Mexico.

Nonhuman primates maintained in captivity have a valuable role in education and research. They are also occasionally used in entertainment. The scope of these activities can range from large, accredited zoos to small “roadside” exhib- its; from national primate research centers to small academic institutions with only a few monkeys; and from movie sets to street performers. Attached to these uses of primates comes an ethical responsibility to provide the animals with an environment that promotes their physical and behavioral health and well-be- ing. -

These species have been traditionally described as living in fission-fusion societies, because they range in subgroups of frequently changing size and composition, in contrast with the more typical cohesive societies. In recent years the concept of fission-fusion dynamics has replaced the dichotomous fluid versus cohesive categorization, as it is now recognized that there is considerable variation in cohesiveness both within and between species. -

Toco Toucan Feeding Ecology and Local Abundance in a Habitat Mosaic in the Brazilian Cerrado
ORNITOLOGIA NEOTROPICAL 19: 345–359, 2008 © The Neotropical Ornithological Society TOCO TOUCAN FEEDING ECOLOGY AND LOCAL ABUNDANCE IN A HABITAT MOSAIC IN THE BRAZILIAN CERRADO José Ragusa-Netto Departamento de Ciências Naturais, Campus Três Lagoas, Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso do Sul, C.P. 210, 79620-080, Três Lagoas, MS, Brazil. E-mail: [email protected] Resumo. – Ecologia alimentar e abundância local do Tucano Toco, em um mosaico de habitats do cerrado. – Os tucanos são frugívoros do dossel que exploram áreas amplas e heterogêneas. O Tucano Toco (Ramphastos toco) é comum no Brasil Central, principalmente no cerrado. Nesse estudo avaliei a pro- dução de frutos, a abundância do Tucano Toco e seus hábitos alimentares em um mosaico de habitats do cerrado. Tanto as variações espaciais quanto temporais de abundância dos tucanos coincidiram com o perí- odo de frutificação das espécies consumidas extensivamente. Essas espécies, principalmente Virola sebifera na mata ciliar e Schefflera macrocarpa no cerrado, exibiram períodos prolongados de frutificação, além de serem conhecidas por produzirem diásporos com elevado teor de lipídeos. Por outro lado, com exceção de Eugenia punicifolia e Miconia albicans, os tucanos consumiram moderadamente muitos tipos de frutos ricos em açúcares, que estiveram disponíveis por breves períodos. Portanto, em razão do Tucano Toco explorar, durante a maior parte do tempo, proporções elevadas de poucas espécies de frutos e oportunamente alter- nar para uma dieta mais variada, ele exibiu variações acentuadas de amplitude de nicho alimentar. As pro- fundas variações espaciais e temporais de abundância, ao longo do ano, sugerem que os tucanos exploram áreas amplas e heterogênas em resposta à disponibilidade de frutos que são importantes em sua dieta. -
Occasional Papers of the Museum of Zoology University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan
NUMBER 680 AUGUST 26, 1977 OCCASIONAL PAPERS OF THE MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN TYPE SPECIMENS OF RECENT MAMMALS IN THE MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY, THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN BY EMMET T. HOOPER Because type specimens (holotypes, syntypes, lectotypes and neotypes) are the property of science, institutions which maintain them have special obligations to insure their safety and permanence and to make available essential information about them. Publishing a list is one way to make that information available. It is a procedure recommended by national and international organizations concerned with systematic collections, for exam- ple by the American Society of Marnmalogists' Committee for Systematic Resources, 1974, and by the Association of Systematic Collections. The International Council of Museums also, in its efforts to draw forth informa- tion on types, considered preparing a universal catalogue of type specimens in zoology and paleontology. Though the objective was not achieved, the Council, in 1968, did produce "A preliminary list of catalogues of type specimens in zoology and paleontology" authored by A. W. Frank Banfield. This publication cites, for Recent Mammalia, catalogues of specimens in 12 Museums. Additional lists have been published (e. g., Jones and Genoways, Misc. Publ. Mus. Nat. Hist. Univ. Kans., 51: 129-146, 1969; Schlitter, J. Mamm., 55: 264-266, 1974). The present writing is the first report on the mammalian types contained in The University of Michigan Museum of Zoology. LIST OF TYPES Listed below are the 118 holotypes and two neotypes contained in the collection. They are arranged under the names by which they were originally described and, when appropriate, are cross-listed to accord with current usage.
