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

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 ...

Diverse grouping and mating strategies in the Critically Endangered Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) [PDF]

open access: yesPrimates, 2022
AbstractUnderstanding flexibility in the social structure and mating strategies of the world’s last remaining population (35 individuals) of wild Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) is critical for developing effective management plans to aid in their population recovery. Three of the five remaining Hainan gibbon groups (A, B, and C) currently live in a

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

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology
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 ...

Non-specific alarm calls trigger mobbing behavior in Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractAlarm calls are important defensive behaviors. Here, we report the acoustic spectrum characteristics of alarm calls produced by Hainan gibbons (Nomascus hainanus) inhabiting Bawangling National Nature Reserve in Hainan, China. Analysis of call data collected from 2002–2014 shows that alarm calls are emitted by all family group members, except ...

Mitogenomes of museum specimens provide new insight into species classification and recently reduced diversity of highly endangered Nomascus gibbons. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
Our findings reveal that the western black crested gibbon (Nomascus concolor) did not divide into different subspecies, and the relatively low level of genetic diversity emphasizes the importance of monitoring this indicator for vulnerable wildlife.
