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.

The petrotympanic canal (Huguier canal): Evolutionary, anatomical, and medical perspectives
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The petrotympanic canal, traditionally referred to as Civinini's or Huguier's canal, represents an anatomical passage connecting the middle ear and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Despite its early description, its structural complexity and functional significance have often been underestimated. In this study, we combined historical, anatomical,

Possible male infanticide in wild orangutans and a re-evaluation of infanticide risk [PDF]
, 2019 Infanticide as a male reproductive tactic is widespread across mammals, and is particularly prevalent in catarrhine primates. While it has never been observed in wild orangutans, infanticide by non-sire males has been predicted to occur due to their ...

Caudal Vertebral Body Articular Surface Morphology Correlates with Functional Tail Use in Anthropoid Primates [PDF]
, 2014 Prehensile tails, capable of suspending the entire body weight of an animal, have evolved in parallel in New World monkeys (Platyrrhini): once in the Atelinae (Alouatta, Ateles, Brachyteles, Lagothrix), and once in the Cebinae (Cebus, Sapajus ...
