People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding the frequency and socio‐ecological drivers of contacts between humans and non‐human primates (NHPs) is crucial for enhancing coexistence that favours NHP conservation, while limiting negative consequences such as aggressions and cross‐species disease transmission.

Comparing the cost-effectiveness of methods for estimating population density for primates in the Amazon rainforest Peru [PDF]
, 2015 With increasingly extreme fluctuations in flood levels in the Amazon basin (Malhi et al. 2008, Marengo et al. 2012, Bodmer et al. 2014) the future of its' fauna is becoming more uncertain.

Belowground effects of ground‐dwelling large herbivores in forest ecosystems
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study reviews how ground‐dwelling large herbivores affect forest soil and litter globally. Effects are context‐dependent, vary among species and forest types, and remain poorly studied in tropical forests, highlighting critical gaps in understanding nutrient cycling and ecosystem functioning.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...

Rensch’s and Bergmann’s Rules in Cis-Andean South-American Howler Monkeys (Mammalia: Alouatta) [PDF]
, 2018 Howler monkeys (genus Alouatta) are large folivorous primates living in South America. We tested for the application of both Rensch’s rule and Bergmann’s rule to body size variation in Alouatta. We found that Rensch’s rule does apply in howlers.

Vocalizations Reveal Species Differences in Endangered Lion Tamarins (Primates, Callitrichidae)
American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 1, January 2026.Spectral parameters of vocalizations distinguish lion tamarin species. Peak frequency, center frequency, and frequency at 5% and 95% were the most informative measures for separating species, with the trill being the vocalization that showed the most differences, and Leontopithecus caissara being the most distinct species of all.

The Effects of Dependent Infants on the Social Behavior of Mantled Howler Monkeys (Alouatta Palliate) [PDF]
, 2012 Six weeks of observation on eight groups of wild mantled howler monkeys revealed that the presence of a dependent infant alters the frequency of social interactions between a female with an infant and other adult monkeys.
