Jaw‐Muscle Structure and Function in Primates: Insights Into Muscle Performance and Feeding‐System Behaviors

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 34, Issue 1, March 2025.
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 ...

The Complexly Parcellated, Yet Quantitatively Reduced, Orexinergic/Hypocretinergic System of Humans

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 2, February 2025.
Immunohistochemical staining for orexin‐A reveals the novel parvocellular orexinergic neuronal cluster (left) in the human brain. In comparison to the more typically observed orexinergic neurons of the main cluster (right), the parvocellular neurons have much smaller soma. Scale bar = 100 µm, applies to both images.

Costs and benefits of allomaternal care to mothers and others in wild Phayre's leaf monkeys

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 185, Issue 3, November 2024.
During the first month of life, Phayre's leaf monkey infants stayed with their mother (74%) or an unrelated allomother (immature or adult female). When infants were with an allomother (26%), mothers benefitted energetically by spending more time feeding. Although allomothers incurred costs by reducing feeding time, overall allomothering varied and most

Habitat use by western purple-faced langurs Trachypithecus vetulus nestor (Colobinae) in a fragmented suburban landscape [PDF]

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2010
As natural habitats around the globe disappear, humans and non-human primates become increasingly engaged in complex interactions, both peaceful and hostile. Sri Lanka's endemic western purple-faced langur Trachypithecus vetulus nestor persists in the majority of its range in complete sympatry with humans.

Variation in monthly and seasonal elevation use impacts behavioral and dietary flexibility in Rhinopithecus bieti

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 86, Issue 7, July 2024.
Black‐and‐white snub‐nosed monkeys spend less time feeding but consume more lichen when ranging at higher elevations. Colored circles indicate samples collected in the winter (red), spring (green), summer (blue), and fall (purple). Abstract Black‐and‐white snub‐nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus bieti) rely on behavioral and dietary flexibility to survive in
