The diurnal primate community of the Tanoé Forest: species composition, relative abundance, distribution, polyspecific associations and conservation status [PDF]
The Tanoé Forest is located within the original distribution area of the Miss Waldron red colobus (Piliocolobus badius waldronae), the diana roloway (Cercopithecus diana roloway) and the white napped mangabey (Cercocebus atys lunulatus). These three

Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are threatened globally, with infectious diseases ranking among the major threat factors. NHPs may also harbor zoonotic pathogens that may spillover to humans, making the surveillance of infectious diseases and parasite infestations in NHPs of conservation and public health important.

Experimental Perspective on Fallback Foods and Dietary Adaptations in Early Hominins [PDF]
The robust jaws and large, thick-enameled molars of the Plio–Pleistocene hominins Australopithecus and Paranthropus have long been interpreted as adaptations for hard-object feeding.

The morphofunctional implications of the glenoid labrum of the glenohumeral joint in hominoids
Objectives: A morphocline of the glenoid cavity has been used to infer differences in locomotor behaviors; however, the glenoid cavity is surrounded by the glenoid labrum, a fibrocartilaginous structure that could influence the functionality of the ...

Agonistic strategies and spatial distribution in captive sooty mangabeys (Cercocebus atys lunulatus)
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 ...
