Differences in Habitat Quality Drive Behavioral Contrasts in Two Family Groups of the Critically Endangered Hainan Gibbon (Nomascus hainanus)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Habitat quality variation drove distinct behavioral strategies: GC (resource‐rich group) behaviors were influenced by food availability, safety and stability, while GE (resource‐scarce group) behaviors relied more on topography, food, and nutrients. Seasonal behavioral flexibility was demonstrated, with food variables dominating in the dry season and ...

Macacine Herpesvirus 1 in Long-Tailed Macaques, Malaysia, 2009–2011

, 2015
Macacine herpesvirus 1 (MaHV1; B virus) naturally infects macaques (Macaca spp.) and can cause fatal encephalitis in humans. In Peninsular Malaysia, wild macaques are abundant, and translocation is used to mitigate human–macaque conflict.

Efficient Masked Autoencoder for Birdsong Representation with Applications on Wild Bird Species Classification

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

Gut Microbiota of Gray Snub‐Nosed Monkeys: Adaptation to Seasonal Variations Through Energy Compensation and Thermogenesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Based on metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs), the gut microbiota of the gray snub‐nosed monkeys recovered 1229 non‐redundant MAGs. The gut microbiota showed an enhanced capacity to produce energy substrates with increased conversion activity of these substrates during winter.

Immune response in thoracic LNs of cynomolgus macaques with granulomas.

, 2018
Cytokine production in thoracic LN with granuloma in response to ESAT6+CFP10 (A-B) or PDBu and ionomycin (C-E) between LNs with bacterial burden (CFU+, red) and those that cleared (CFU-, blue). A.

Seasonal Dynamics of Community and Function of Gut Microbiome in Taihangshan Macaque (Macaca mulatta tcheliensis): Inferred From Metagenomic Data

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A total of 435 non‐redundant metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) were obtained from fecal samples of Taihangshan macaque across all four seasons. The alpha diversity of the gut microbiome in spring and winter was significantly higher than in summer and autumn. Furthermore, marked differences were detected in functional pathways and carbohydrate enzymes

Transfer of Metacognitive Skills and Hint Seeking in Monkeys [PDF]

Metacognition is knowledge that can be expressed as confidence judgments about what we know (monitoring) and by strategies for learning what we don’t know (control).

Buton macaques (Macaca ochreata brunnescens): crops, conflict, and behavior on farms

, 2011
One consequence of anthropogenic habitat alteration is that many nonhuman primates are forced into conflict interactions with humans and their livelihood activities, especially through crop raiding.

Baseline Cortisol and Behavioral Phenotype Are Linked to Context‐Dependent Spatial Cognition and Space Use in Giant Pandas

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Baseline cortisol and repeatable behavioral phenotypes were associated with context‐dependent spatial cognition in giant pandas. Individuals differed in spatial search performance under stable and changing resource conditions. Exploratory GPS analyses revealed directionally consistent but non‐significant patterns of space use in novel environments ...
