Assessing the Determinants of Platyrrhine Quadrupedal Gait Kinematics in an Ecological and Phylogenetic Framework

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 2, February 2025.
Results of redundancy analysis and variation partitioning reveal that phylogeny influences quadrupedal kinematics more strongly than do substrate characteristics in platyrrhines moving in their natural habitat. Callitrichines are maximally divergent from other taxa due to their preference for asymmetrical gaits, higher speeds and higher stride ...

A Macaque Model for the Effects of Hybridization on Body Size

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 186, Issue 2, February 2025.
Virtual measurements from CT scans of living monkeys were used to capture size and shape data on the effects of hybridization in size and variation. ABSTRACT Objectives Genomics research has uncovered recurrent hybridization between hominin species, yet its morphological impact remains understudied.

Blood ties: ABO is a trans-species polymorphism in primates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The ABO histo-blood group, the critical determinant of transfusion incompatibility, was the first genetic polymorphism discovered in humans. Remarkably, ABO antigens are also polymorphic in many other primates, with the same two amino acid changes ...

Primates and disability: Behavioral flexibility and implications for resilience to environmental change

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 1, January 2025.
A photo of Nau, a Japanese macaque who was born with one eye, and the key highlights from the review article. Abstract Congenital malformations, conditions, injuries, and illness can lead to long‐term physical impairment and disability in nonhuman primates. How individual primates change their behaviors flexibly to compensate for their disabilities can

Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope enrichment in primate tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Isotopic studies of wild primates have used a wide range of tissues to infer diet and model the foraging ecologies of extinct species. The use of mismatched tissues for such comparisons can be problematic because differences in amino acid compositions ...
