Behavioural patterns of vocal greeting production in four primate species [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
Social animals have evolved a range of signals to avoid aggressive and facilitate affiliative interactions. Vocal behaviour is especially important in this respect with many species, including various primates, producing acoustically distinct ‘greeting ...

Evolutionary Signal and Development of the Foramen Dorsum Sellae (Nov.) Across Primates

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 9, September 2026.
The dorsum sellae of the sphenoid bone occasionally exhibits an accessory opening, though its significance is unknown. We scored its presence in humans (N = 114) and 30 non‐human primate genera (N = 1468) and combined histological, dissection‐based, and phylogenetic approaches to understand its function. The foramen occurred in 12% of humans and 33% of

Agonistic strategies and spatial distribution in captive sooty mangabeys (Cercocebus atys lunulatus) [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of this article is to study the relationship between the dominance hierarchy and the spatial distribution of a group of captive sooty mangabeys (Cercocebus atys).

Dietary Adaptation in Paranthropus robustus Postcanine Teeth

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.
Upper premolar enamel thickness in Paranthropus robustus increased significantly over time, especially in the occlusal region. ABSTRACT Objectives Recent studies of Paranthropus robustus crania identified temporal trends in features associated with increased bite force production, coinciding with environmental shifts toward more arid conditions.

Clades, Grades, and the Genus Problem: A Case for Revising Hominin Taxonomy

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxonomic practice in evolutionary biology increasingly prioritizes the recognition of monophyletic groups (clades), yet paleoanthropology still applies this principle inconsistently. Here, I outline these inconsistencies and broader challenges in hominin taxonomy and propose a potential solution.

Rethinking Spatial Prioritisation for Primate Conservation in an Unprotected Intact Forest Landscape in the Gulf of Guinea

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 4, Page 364-378, August 2026.
This study highlights the importance of the unprotected Yabassi Key Biodiversity Area, Cameroon, for primate conservation in the Gulf of Guinea biodiversity hotspot. We modelled primate distribution patterns and found that historically overlooked parts of the landscape have high species richness and are critical for some threatened species.

How Food Geometry and Toughness Influence Ingestive Patterns in Lemurs

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 7, July 2026.
Initial bite placement is influenced by food toughness and geometry. Species‐specific feeding strategies reflect differences in masticatory morphology and functional flexibility. Lemur catta is more likely to use the postcanine tooth row; Propithecus verreauxi prefers anterior biting. ABSTRACT We investigate the extent to which food toughness, geometry,
