Preliminary study on premature infant death of Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus): implications for conservation

open access: yesFrontiers in Conservation Science
Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) is China’s only endemic gibbon species and among the world’s rarest primate species. Documenting infant mortality and investigating their underlying causes are essential for informing evidence-based conservation ...

Recent Recovery of the World’s Rarest Primate Is Not Directly Linked to Increasing Habitat Quality

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Due to habitat loss and hunting, the Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus), the world’s rarest primate, was reduced to only two social groups and seven known individuals in 1978.

Automated Detection of Gibbon Calls From Passive Acoustic Monitoring Data Using Convolutional Neural Networks in the "Torch for R" Ecosystem. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Our paper presents a workflow utilizing deep learning with convolutional neural networks in the “torch for R” ecosystem for automated detection of gibbon calls from passive acoustic monitoring data. We compare six CNN architectures, assessing their performance on data sets of female calls from two gibbon species.

Hainan Gibbons (Nomascus hainanus), the Most Threatened and Rarest Primate in the World

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences, 2022
Gibbons (Hylobatidae) are exclusively arboreal small apes only inhabiting in tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia [1]. Gibbons in Nomascus have 52 chromosomes and adult males and females are almost the same body size.

Population Monitoring of the Red Junglefowl Based on Acoustic Signal Recognition Technology. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
ABSTRACT Vocalisation is a crucial means of communication for birds and plays a key role in survival and reproductive success. Individual differences in songs have been used for identification in many animals, but few studies have integrated song individuality into wildlife population monitoring.
