According to some accounts, the name "bush baby" comes from Bush Beauties the animal's cries or its appearance. The Ghanaian name aposor is given to them because of Bush Beauties firm grip on branches. In both variety and abundance, the bush babies are the most successful strepsirrhine primates in Africa, according to the African Wildlife Foundation. Galagos have large eyes Bush Beauties give them Bush Beauties night vision in addition to other characteristics, like strong hind limbs, acute hearingand long tails that help them balance. Their ears are bat-like and allow them to track insects in the dark. They catch insects on the ground or snatch them out of the air. They are fast, agile creatures. As they bound through the thick bushes, they fold their delicate ears back to protect them. They also fold them during rest. Their diet is a mixture of insects and other small animals, fruit, and Bush Beauties gums. After a gestation period of — days, young galagos are born Bush Beauties half-closed eyes and are initially unable to move about independently. Bush Beauties a few 6—8 days, the mother carries the infant in her mouth, and places it on branches while feeding. Females may have singles, twins, or triplets, and may become very aggressive. Each Bush Beauties weighs less than half an ounce. For the first three days, the infant is kept in constant contact with the mother. The young are fed by the mother for six weeks and can feed themselves at two months. The young grow rapidly, often causing the mother to walk awkwardly as she transports Bush Beauties. Females maintain a territorybut share them with their offspring. Males leave their Bush Beauties territories after puberty, but females remain, forming social groups consisting of closely related females and their young. Adult males maintain separate territories, which overlap with those of the female social groups; generally, one adult male mates with all the females in an area. Males that have not Bush Beauties such territories sometimes form small bachelor Bush Beauties. While keeping them as pets is not advised like many other nonhuman primates, they are considered likely sources of diseases that can cross species barriersit is certainly done. Equally, they are highly likely to attract attention from customs officials on importation into many countries. Reports from veterinary and zoological sources indicate captive lifetimes of Galagos communicate both by calling to each other, and by marking their paths with urine. By Bush Beauties the scent of urine, they Bush Beauties land on exactly the same branch every time. These calls have multiple different functions. One function is long-distance identification and differentiation of individual species, and scientists are now able Bush Beauties recognize all known galago species by their Bush Beauties calls'. Galagos have Bush Beauties jumping abilities. The highest reliably reported jump for a galago is 2. In a series of leaps, a galago can cover ten yards in mere seconds. The tail, which is longer than the length of the head and body combined, assists the powerful leg muscles in powering the jumps. The bush Bush Beauties also refers to a myth that is used to scare children to stay indoors at night. Endangerment of the species, however, in sub-Saharan Africa has made this claim difficult to verify. Generally, the social structure of the galago has components of both Bush Beauties life and solitary life. This can be seen in their play. They swing off branches or climb high and throw things. Social play includes play fights, play grooming, and following-play. During following-play, two galagos jump sporadically and chase each other through the trees. The older galagos in a group prefer to rest alone, while younger ones are in constant contact with one another. Mothers often leave infants alone for long periods of time and do not attempt to Bush Beauties infants from leaving them. On the other Bush Beauties, the offspring attempts to stay close to, and initiate social interactions with the mother. Grooming Bush Beauties a very important part of galago daily life. They often autogroom before, during, and after rest. Social grooming is performed more often by males in the group. Females often reject the attempts made by the males to groom them. Galagos are currently grouped into six genera. Euoticus is a basal sister taxon to all the other galagids. The latter are basal Bush Beauties all the other non- Euoticus galagids. The former group is sister to Galago and has been elevated Bush Beauties full genus status as Paragalago. The phylogeny of Galagidae according to Masters et al.

Marais Correspondence to: [email protected] This PDF file includes: Supplementary Text S1 to S2 Figs. S1 to S2 Tables S1 1 Supplementary Text Text S1: Regions of the strepsirrhine X chromosomes with unusual male:female coverage ratio In Fig. 1, both lemur X chromosomes exhibit regions with male:female coverage ratio close to 1 (shown in grey) in their X-specific parts, where a ratio of 0.5 is expected. The gray mouse lemur has five such regions, the northern greater galago three. The dot plots of the lemur and the human X chromosomes (see Fig. 1 and S1) clearly show that little or no homologous genes are found in those regions, which suggest that they may be homologous to other human chromosomes. This would be consistent with the male:female coverage ratio of 1, typical of autosmal regions, that we found for these regions. To explore this possibility, we extracted the sequences of those regions and performed a tblastn against all the human proteins (human genome version GRCh38). In case of isoforms, the longest protein was kept so that a human gene was present only once. We then filtered the tblastn results by keeping only hits with >80% similarity (based on average nucleotide divergence between lemurs and humans) and e-value < 10-9. From those, we kept human proteins covered by hits to >80% using SiLix (Miele, Penel, & Duret, 2011).

    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.

  • Otolemur Crassicaudatus – Thick-Tailed Bushbaby
    Otolemur crassicaudatus – Thick-tailed Bushbaby size (adult body weight 800–1500 g), relatively flat basicranium, low-crowned molars and reduced third upper molars (M3). Both species have a cornified region of skin proximal to the plantar pads of the hind foot that is rubbed noisily against the substrate during periods of agitation or insecurity. The distal margins of the nails are convex in young animals, but wear quickly to form a semi- lunar, concave margin in adults. The subspecies, O. c. crassicaudatus (Groves 2001), occurs in Mpumalanga, Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal provinces in South Africa and Mozambique south of the Limpopo River. Across this region the pelage is variable, ranging from dark grey to chocolate brown, and various admixtures of L. Pozzi the two. Pelage variation is likely to be linked to varying needs for camouflage in different vegetation types, and possibly different seasons, as the animals are most Regional Red List status (2016) Least Concern vulnerable to predation when asleep during the day.

  • Evolutionary History of Lorisiform Primates
    Evolution: Reviewed Article Folia Primatol 1998;69(suppl 1):250–285 oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Evolutionary History of Lorisiform Primates D. Tab Rasmussen, Kimberley A. Nekaris Department of Anthropology, Washington University, St. Louis, Mo., USA Key Words Lorisidae · Strepsirhini · Plesiopithecus · Mioeuoticus · Progalago · Galago · Vertebrate paleontology · Phylogeny · Primate adaptation Abstract We integrate information from the fossil record, morphology, behavior and mo- lecular studies to provide a current overview of lorisoid evolution. Several Eocene prosimians of the northern continents, including both omomyids and adapoids, have been suggested as possible lorisoid ancestors, but these cannot be substantiated as true strepsirhines. A small-bodied primate, Anchomomys, of the middle Eocene of Europe may be the best candidate among putative adapoids for status as a true strepsirhine. Recent finds of Eocene primates in Africa have revealed new prosimian taxa that are also viable contenders for strepsirhine status. Plesiopithecus teras is a Nycticebus- sized, nocturnal prosimian from the late Eocene, Fayum, Egypt, that shares cranial specializations with lorisoids, but it also retains primitive features (e.g. four premo- lars) and has unique specializations of the anterior teeth excluding it from direct lorisi- form ancestry. Another unnamed Fayum primate resembles modern cheirogaleids in dental structure and body size. Two genera from Oman, Omanodon and Shizarodon, also reveal a mix of similarities to both cheirogaleids and anchomomyin adapoids. Resolving the phylogenetic position of these Africa primates of the early Tertiary will surely require more and better fossils. By the early to middle Miocene, lorisoids were well established in East Africa, and the debate about whether these represent lorisines or galagines is reviewed.
