Seasonal changes in the parasite prevalence of a small Malagasy lemur species (Lepilemur edwardsi)

Integrative Zoology, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 427-439, May 2023., 2023
The folivorous Malagasy primate Lepilemur edwardsi living in the dry deciduous forests of western Madagascar shows a seasonal increase of intestinal parasite prevalence from the wet to the dry season. The increase in intestinal parasites is presumably caused by a decrease in resource availability and quality in the habitat of L. edwardsi. Ectoparasite (
