Frugivore Declines Across Taxa Affect Forest Biomass

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
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.

Coordination challenges shape signal complexity in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes verus), but not in mangabeys (Cercocebus atys atys) [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Increased coordination challenges, such as in the negotiation of group movement and activity, has been suggested to promote communicative complexity. This hypothesis, however, has rarely been tested within and between species, specifically in relation to

Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.

Social Drivers of Vocal Flexibility in Female Baboons

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 390-398, June 2026.
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.

Gestural Sequences in Wild Spider Monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 4, April 2026.
Geoffroy's spider monkeys produce gestural sequences in the wild, mostly during aggressive, playful and sexual interactions. ABSTRACT To date, research on gestural communication in species other than great apes has been quite limited, especially in their natural habitat, although including a broader range of species in different settings is essential ...

Behavioral Contagion in Wild Ecuadorian White‐Fronted Capuchins (Cebus aequatorialis)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 1, January 2026.
White‐fronted capuchins exhibit scratching contagion, but neither the characteristics of the trigger, or of the partner's (sex, age class, or centrality), or of the dyad (combination of sex, combination of age class, or social bond) seem to modulate the likelihood of contagion.
