Novel insights into the genetic diversity of Balantidium and Balantidium-like cyst-forming ciliates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Balantidiasis is considered a neglected zoonotic disease with pigs serving as reservoir hosts. However, Balantidium coli has been recorded in many other mammalian species, including primates. Here, we evaluated the genetic diversity of B.

Morphology of the walls of the cavernous sinus of Cebus apella (tufted capuchin monkey) [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1999
The morphology of the dura mater and its relationship with the structures of the cavernous sinus were analyzed in five tufted capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) using histological sections, showing that the walls of the cavernous sinus of this species are ...

Comparative metabolomics in primates reveals the effects of diet and gene regulatory variation on metabolic divergence. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Human diets differ from those of non-human primates. Among few obvious differences, humans consume more meat than most non-human primates and regularly cook their food.

Primates [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
SummaryHomo sapiens is just one of some 400 extant species allocated to the mammalian order Primates, originally proposed by Linnaeus in the mid-18th Century. As George Gaylord Simpson tartly noted in his seminal 1945 classification of the class Mammalia: “The primates are inevitably the most interesting of mammals to an egocentric species that belongs

Extrapolating from Laboratory Behavioral Research on Nonhuman Primates Is Unjustified [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Conducting research on animals is supposed to be valuable because it provides information on how human mechanisms work. But for the use of animal models to be ethically justified, it must be epistemically justified.

What does it mean to be wild? Assessing human influence on the environments of nonhuman primate specimens in museum collections

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Objectives Natural history collections are often thought to represent environments in a pristine natural state—free from human intervention—the so‐called “wild.” In this study, we aim to assess the level of human influence represented by natural history ...

The Ape Lottery: Chimpanzees Fail To Consider Spatial Information When Drawing Statistical Inferences

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2021
Humans and nonhuman great apes share a sense for intuitive statistics, making intuitive probability judgments based on proportional information. This ability is of tremendous importance, in particular for predicting the outcome of events using prior ...

Comparison of musculoskeletal networks of the primate forelimb [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Anatomical network analysis is a framework for quantitatively characterizing the topological organization of anatomical structures, thus providing a way to compare structural integration and modularity among species.

Rates of agonism among female primates: a cross-taxon perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Agonism is common in group-living animals, shaping dominance relationships and ultimately impacting individual tness. Rates of agonism vary considerably among taxa, however, and explaining this variation has been central in ecological models of female ...
