Cercopithecid Monkeys From the Pleistocene Markaytoli Site at Ledi‐Geraru, Afar Region, Ethiopia
ABSTRACT Objectives Cercopithecid monkeys are ubiquitous across much of sub‐Saharan Africa today, where they contribute much to the ecological and taxonomic diversity seen in modern African primate communities. Plio‐Pleistocene assemblages from eastern Africa also preserve a rich cercopithecid fossil record, albeit one dominated by papionins and by ...

Frugivore Declines Across Taxa Affect Forest Biomass
We examined how frugivore declines affect aboveground biomass in 260 1‐ha forest plots across Gabon using imputed frugivory networks between 122 frugivores and 99,349 trees. Simulated frugivore declines across Gabon tended to reduce aboveground biomass, with effects varying by taxon and geography.

Parasites and infectious diseases are well-known threats to primate populations. The main objective of this study was to provide baseline data on fecal parasites in the cercopithecid monkeys inhabiting Côte d’Ivoire’s Taï National Park.

No safe refuge? Contrasting effects of hunting on rainforest mammal persistence and (re)colonisation
Our results imply that hunting not only targets areas used as refuges by wildlife, but also reduces recolonisation potential and may therefore alter source–sink dynamics. We recommend spatially targeted community‐led actions to limit hunting where wildlife still persists through the creation of no‐hunting areas to ensure the long‐term persistence of ...

Social Drivers of Vocal Flexibility in Female Baboons
Female olive baboons selectively grunt when encountering females with dependent offspring. Grunting likelihood depends on rank differences and the strength of their social bond. This study adds to the evidence that nonhuman primates have evolved to use structurally‐inflexible vocalisations in population and context‐flexible ways.

Primate ranging behavior is associated with numerous social and ecological correlates. Interspecific comparisons of ranging behavior can therefore provide insight into the socio-ecological conditions that characterize a species' niche within its ...
