Agonistic Strategies and Spatial Distribution in Captive Sooty Mangabeys ( Cercocebus Atys ) [PDF]

Psychological Reports, 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). The analysis of the spatial distribution of individuals in relation to their rank in the dominance hierarchy showed a clear linear hierarchy in which the dominant individual was ...

Inter-Observer Processing and Measurement Error Are Low for 2D Dental Measurements on Shared microCT Scans. [PDF]

Am J Biol Anthropol
ABSTRACT Objectives Sharing micro‐computed tomographic (μCT) scans of teeth increases data accessibility and reduces the need for repeated scans of any given specimen. However, the use of the same TIFF stacks or DICOMs by multiple individuals has the potential to introduce new sources of error.

Jaw-Muscle Structure and Function in Primates: Insights Into Muscle Performance and Feeding-System Behaviors. [PDF]

Evol Anthropol
ABSTRACT The jaw‐adductor muscles drive the movements and forces associated with primate feeding behaviors such as biting and chewing as well as social signaling behaviors such as wide‐mouth canine display. The past several decades have seen a rise in research aimed at the anatomy and physiology of primate chewing muscles to better understand the ...

Serosurveillance of Leishmania infantum in Zoo-Kept Animals in Spain. [PDF]

Zoonoses Public Health
ABSTRACT Introduction Leishmaniosis is a sand fly‐borne zoonosis mainly caused by Leishmania infantum in Europe. Exposure to this protozoan has been widely reported in many domestic and wild species. However, epidemiological surveys evaluating the circulation of L. infantum in zoo‐kept animals remain limited. This large‐scale study aims to evaluate the

Call combination order and iterations may shift meaning in sooty mangabey vocal sequences [PDF]

BMC Biology
Background Human language expands meaning through the structured combination of sounds, but such mechanisms remain rare in nonhuman animals, raising questions about their evolution.

Vocal Repertoire of Sooty Mangabeys (Cercocebus torquatus atys) in the Taï National Park

Ethology, 2004
AbstractThree factors, environment, quality and type of interaction, and phylogeny have been hypothesized to influence the structure of signal repertoires in primates. Much is known about vocal repertoires of terrestrial, savannah‐dwelling species and arboreal, rainforest‐dwelling species, but very little is known about terrestrial rainforest species ...

Estrus Vocalizations in Two Primate Species (Cercocebus Torquatus Atys and Macaca Nemestrina)

Evolution of Communication, 1998
Vocalizations of sexually receptive females in two primate species, the sooty mangabey (Cercocebus torquatus atys) and the pigtail macaque (Macaca nemestrina), were compared with respect to the acoustical features of calls as well as the reproductive and social factors that were associated with calling behavior. Sixty-two bouts of calling were recorded

Chasing a ghost: notes on the present distribution and conservation of the sooty mangabey (Cercocebus atys) in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa. [PDF]

Primates, 2020
UIDB/04038/2020 UIDP/04038/2020The West-African sooty mangabey (Cercocebus atys) is threatened by habitat loss, hunting for meat consumption, and mortality during crop-foraging events. The species’ overall demographic trend is unknown.

Consistency of Social Interactions in Sooty Mangabeys and Chimpanzees

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Predictability of social interactions can be an important measure for the social complexity of an animal group. Predictability is partially dependent on how consistent interaction patterns are over time: does the behavior on 1 day explain the behavior on
