川、黔、滇金丝猴地理分布的变迁

open access: yes野生动物学报, 1992
金丝猴(Rhino pithecus spp.) 属灵长目(Primates)猴科(Cercopithecidae),是我国与大熊猫媲美齐名的另一种珍稀动物。它有三个种:川金丝猴、黔金丝猴和滇金丝猴,主要分布在我国西南川、黔、滇三省。研究金丝猴在西南的历史分布及其变迁,具有重要的意义。

Cercopithecid Monkeys From the Pleistocene Markaytoli Site at Ledi‐Geraru, Afar Region, Ethiopia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
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 ...

Molecular Insights and Repellent Efficacy of the Essential Oil and Major Compounds From Piper cyrtopodon (Miq.) C.DC (Piperaceae) Against Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (Culicidae)

open access: yesArchiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 6, June 2026.
The essential oil and major compounds from Piper cyrtopodon exhibit potent, long‐lasting repellent activity against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, combined with low cytotoxicity and favorable molecular docking interactions with odorant‐binding proteins. These findings highlight its potential for the development of alternative products for bite prevention ...

New femoral evidence from the Afar reveal the early evolution of habitual squatting behaviors in the genus Theropithecus

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionThe femoral anatomy of fossil Theropithecus is poorly known, although it provides critical data for inferring squatting behaviors, a characteristic trait of extant Theropithecus gelada.MethodsHere, we describe and provide functional and ...

Habitat Utilization Preference by Small Mammals Is Associated With Geomorphic and Soil Properties: A Case Study of the Plateau Pika From the Eastern Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study, through a large‐scale survey, reveals a close relationship between plateau pika habitat use preferences and geomorphic and soil characteristics. The findings indicate that pikas prefer flat, sun‐facing terrain near water sources, as well as specific ranges of soil depth, organic matter, and moisture.

Phylogeny of the macaques (Cercopithecidae: Macaca) based on Alu elements

open access: yesGene, 2009
Genus Macaca (Cercopithecidae: Papionini) is one of the most successful primate radiations. Despite previous studies on morphology and mitochondrial DNA analysis, a number of issues regarding the details of macaque evolution remain unsolved. Alu elements are a class of non-autonomous retroposons belonging to short interspersed elements that are ...

Behavioral Variability of Endangered Northern Pig‐Tailed Macaques in a Degraded Mosaic Habitat in Northeast Bangladesh

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Macaca leonina in Bangladesh exhibit habitat‐, season‐, and sex–age–dependent behavioral variability. Food‐related activities (p < 0.001, multinomial regression, shown graph) were more likely in the plantation and feeding there declined in summer; adult males in the plantation were also less likely to play and groom.

A hypothesis-based approach to species identification in the fossil record: a papionin case study

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Modern papionin monkeys are a diverse group that encompasses a broad range of morphologies, behaviors, and ecologies. A fossil genus known from African Plio-Pleistocene deposits, Parapapio, is widely regarded as a candidate ancestor to later African ...

The First Capitular Joint in Primates: Cebidae, Cercopithecidae and Homo

open access: yesOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 1992
As for the first capitular joint, Ohman (1986) claimed that a univertebral type is unique to modern and fossil hominids among primates. Stern and Jungers (1990) compiled the data in a wider range of primate and demonstrated as follows. The univertebral type, rather than being unique to hominids, is common among siamang, occurs in an occasional gibbon ...
