Predictors of orbital convergence in primates: A test of the snake detection hypothesis of primate evolution [PDF]

, 2011
Traditional explanations for the evolution of high orbital convergence and stereoscopic vision in primates have focused on how stereopsis might have aided early primates in foraging or locomoting in an arboreal environment. It has recently been suggested

Interpreting Patterns of X Chromosomal Relative to Autosomal Diversity in Aye‐Ayes (Daubentonia madagascariensis)

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 12, December 2025.
We here newly identify the pseudoautosomal region (PAR) in the current reference assembly of aye‐ayes, generate mutation and recombination rate maps across the X chromosome, find evidence supporting roughly equal male:female sex ratios, and investigate X‐specific demographic and selective dynamics.

The evolution and development of visual perspective taking [PDF]

, 2019
I outline three conceptions of seeing that a creature might possess: ‘the headlamp conception,’ which involves an understanding of the causal connections between gazing at an object, certain mental states, and behavior; ‘the stage lights conception ...

Voxel-based morphometry analyses of in-vivo MRI in the aging mouse lemur primate

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Cerebral atrophy is one of the most widely brain alterations associated to aging. A clear relationship has been established between age-associated cognitive impairments and cerebral atrophy. The mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus) is a small primate used as

Sources of variation in social tolerance in mouse lemurs (Microcebus spp.)

BMC Ecology, 2019
Background Social tolerance strongly influences the patterns of affiliation and aggression in animal societies. However, not much is known about the variation of social tolerance in species living in dispersed social systems that combine solitary ...
