  • Geology and Vertebrate Paleontology of Western and Southern North America
    OF WESTERN AND SOUTHERN NORTH AMERICA OF WESTERN AND SOUTHERN NORTH PALEONTOLOGY GEOLOGY AND VERTEBRATE Geology and Vertebrate Paleontology of Western and Southern North America Edited By Xiaoming Wang and Lawrence G. Barnes Contributions in Honor of David P. Whistler WANG | BARNES 900 Exposition Boulevard Los Angeles, California 90007 Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Science Series 41 May 28, 2008 Paleocene primates from the Goler Formation of the Mojave Desert in California Donald L. Lofgren,1 James G. Honey,2 Malcolm C. McKenna,2,{,2 Robert L. Zondervan,3 and Erin E. Smith3 ABSTRACT. Recent collecting efforts in the Goler Formation in California’s Mojave Desert have yielded new records of turtles, rays, lizards, crocodilians, and mammals, including the primates Paromomys depressidens Gidley, 1923; Ignacius frugivorus Matthew and Granger, 1921; Plesiadapis cf. P. anceps; and Plesiadapis cf. P. churchilli. The species of Plesiadapis Gervais, 1877, indicate that Member 4b of the Goler Formation is Tiffanian. In correlation with Tiffanian (Ti) lineage zones, Plesiadapis cf. P. anceps indicates that the Laudate Discovery Site and Edentulous Jaw Site are Ti2–Ti3 and Plesiadapis cf. P. churchilli indicates that Primate Gulch is Ti4. The presence of Paromomys Gidley, 1923, at the Laudate Discovery Site suggests that the Goler Formation occurrence is the youngest known for the genus. Fossils from Member 3 and the lower part of Member 4 indicate a possible marine influence as Goler Formation sediments accumulated. On the basis of these specimens and a previously documented occurrence of marine invertebrates in Member 4d, the Goler Basin probably was in close proximity to the ocean throughout much of its existence.

    ISSN 0376-4638 UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL DE LA PLATA - FACULTAD DE CIENCIAS NATURALES Y MUSEO Revista del Museo de La Plata 2013 Sección Zoología, 20 (176): 20-39 Sistemática, evolución y paleobiogeografía de los primates Platyrrhini Marcelo F. Tejedor Centro Nacional Patagónico - CONICET. Boulevard Alte. Brown 2915, (9120) Puerto Madryn, Provincia de Chubut, Argentina. [email protected] RESUMEN . Estudios recientes acerca de las relaciones filogenéticas entre los primates platirrinos, basados en datos morfológicos y moleculares, concuerdan en una división en tres familias: Atelidae, Pitheciidae y Cebidae, con la única excepción de Aotus , que dependiendo de enfoques moleculares o morfológicos, lo relacionan con cébidos o pitécidos, respectivamente. El registro fósil de los platirrinos procede de regiones distantes entre sí, siendo los más antiguos los que proceden del Oligoceno tardío de Bolivia (26 Ma). Estratos del Mioceno medio de La Venta, Colombia, y del Mioceno temprano a medio de Patagonia y Chile, se cuentan entre los yacimientos con mayor abundancia de platirrinos fósiles, representados por 11 géneros en La Venta, ocho en Argentina y uno en Chile, en un rango temporal desde aproximadamente 12 a 20 Ma, siendo más antiguos los de Patagonia y Chile. Los de La Venta son los más relacionados con formas actuales. Se recuperaron, además, dos géneros del Pleistoceno del este de Brasil, al menos tres taxones del Mioceno tardío de Río Acre, Brasil, y cuatro géneros del Pleistoceno y Holoceno de las Antillas. Estimaciones recientes sobre tiempos de divergencia en la filogenia de primates, sugieren una antigüedad para el crown group Platyrrhini que permite incluir a los primates patagónicos.

In Madagascar, cacao (Theobroma 26 cacao) is grown under a mix of native and exotic shade trees and this study sought to understand if 27 lemurs were present in these agroecosystems. Between November 2016 and March 2017, 28 discussions with farmers, nocturnal reconnaissance surveys and camera traps were used to confirm 29 the presence of lemurs in the Cokafa and Mangabe plantations near Ambanja, northwest 30 Madagascar. Four species of lemur were encountered in nocturnal surveys; Mirza zaza, Phaner 31 parienti, Microcebus sambiranensis and Cheirogaleus sp. with encounter rates of 1.2, 0.4, 0.4 and 0.3 32 individuals/ km respectively. The presence of Lepilemur dorsalis was confirmed by camera trap. This 33 is the first time lemurs have been studied in cacao plantations, and understanding how these 34 threatened animals use anthropogenic landscapes is vital for their conservation.

  • Lemurs of Madagascar and the Comoros the Lucn Red Data Book
    Lemurs of Madagascar and the Comoros The lUCN Red Data Book Prepared by The World Conservation Monitoring Centre lUCN - The World Conservation Union 6(^2_ LEMURS OF MADAGASCAR and the Comoros The lUCN Red Data Book lUCN - THE WORLD CONSERVATION UNION Founded in 1948, lUCN - The World Conservation Union - is a membership organisation comprising governments, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), research institutions, and conservation agencies in 120 countries. The Union's objective is to promote and encourage the protection and sustainable utilisation of living resources. Several thousand scientists and experts from all continents form part of a network supporting the work of its six Commissions: threatened species, protected areas, ecology, sustainable development, environmental law and environmental education and training. Its thematic programmes include tropical forests, wetlands, marine ecosystems, plants, the Sahel, Antarctica, population and natural resources, and women in conservation. These activities enable lUCN and its members to develop sound policies and programmes for the conservation of biological diversity and sustainable development of natural resources. WCMC - THE WORLD CONSERVATION MONITORING CENTRE The World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC) is a joint venture between the three partners in the World Conservation Strategy, the World Conservation Union (lUCN), the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Its mission is to support conservation and sustainable development by collecting and analysing global conservation data so that decisions affecting biological resources are based on the best available information. WCMC has developed a global overview database of the world's biological diversity that includes threatened plant and animal species, habitats of conservation concern, critical sites, protected areas of the world, and the utilisation and trade in wildlife species and products.

Vogel Lectures: M-Th 12:35-1:55 pm, BIO-206 Office: Bio 206; Phone: 848-932-9277 E-mail: [email protected] Office Hours: Monday 2:30-4:00 or by For emails put : “Anth 348” as appointment subject http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~ev140/ervogel/ ___________________________________________________________________________ PREREQUISITE: Anthropology 212 (can be a co-requisite) or permission of the instructor COURSE DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES: This course focuses on the interface between the behavior and ecology of the Order Primates (prosimians, monkeys, apes, plus Homo sapiens). The theoretical framework is comparative and evolutionary, and the levels of analysis are multiple: individual, family, group, population, and species. We will examine how the basic principles of animal ecology can help us understand primate behavior. We will look at a wide range of primates from a comparative perspective as we explore primate habitats, diets, life histories, and communities, as well as the concept of the niche, environmental influences on reproductive and social strategies, plant-animal interactions, cognitive ecology, and much more. Because most primate species are threatened, endangered, or even facing extinction, we will also focus on how various aspects of ecology are used in the conservation of primates. I will draw heavily on field studies of primates and emphasize their behavior in natural environmental and social settings. The objectives of the course are: 1) to gain an understanding of principles of animal behavior by using primates as a model 2) to understand how to think “functionally” about problems in biology; in other words, to use the concept of natural selection to explain variation in primate behavior 3) to understand variation in behavior and how ecology influences this variation in living primates 4) to use the comparative approach to better understand why primate societies differ Page 1 of 8 REQUIRED TEXT 1) Strier, K.B.

The theoretical framework is comparative and evolutionary, and the levels of analysis are multiple: individual, family, group, population, and species. We will examine how the basic principles of animal ecology can help us understand primate behavior. We will look at a wide range of primates from a comparative perspective as we explore primate habitats, diets, life histories, and communities, as well as the concept of the niche, environmental influences on reproductive and social strategies, plant-animal interactions, cognitive ecology, and much more. Because most primate species are threatened, endangered, or even facing extinction, we will also focus on how various aspects of ecology are used in the conservation of primates. I will draw heavily on field studies of primates and emphasize their behavior in natural environmental and social settings. The learning goals
