Molecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 14, Page 3888-3902, July 2022., 2022 Abstract Mitochondrial DNA remains a cornerstone for molecular ecology, especially for study species from which high‐quality tissue samples cannot be easily obtained. Methods using mitochondrial markers are usually reliant on reference databases, but these are often incomplete.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 10, Page 5742-5758, May 2021., 2021 Neotropical primates exhibit substantial variation within and between species in color vision abilities; however, little work has explored interspecific variation in a single primate community. In this study, we genotyped functional variation in the middle‐to‐long‐wavelength opsin gene in populations of five sympatric primate species at the Yasuní ...

Ecological correlates of space use patterns in wild western lowland gorillas
American Journal of Primatology, Volume 82, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020 Abstract The distribution of resources is a crucial determinant of animals' space use (e.g., daily travel distance, monthly home range size, and revisitation patterns). We examined how variation in ecological parameters affected variability in space use patterns of western lowland gorillas, Gorilla gorilla gorilla.

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

Food Sharing across Borders [PDF]
, 2018 Evolutionary models consider hunting and food sharing to be milestones that paved the way from primate to human societies. Because fossil evidence is scarce, hominoid primates serve as referential models to assess our common ancestors’ capacity in terms ...
