Social and Life History Strategies of Tibetan Macaques at Mt. Huangshan [PDF]
, 2019 Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) are just beginning to be known in primatology, but some unique aspects of their morphology, ecology, behavior, and phylogeny indicate that they can play an important role in comparative studies of macaques. Here, we present a summary of their social and life history strategies based on continuous observation over ...

Tibetan Macaque Social Style: Covariant and Quasi-independent Evolution [PDF]
, 2019 AbstractUnderstanding the evolutionary origins of group social structure is vital to understanding how individuals deal with the trade-offs of group living. In this chapter, we review our previous work related to social style in Tibetan macaques and across macaque species, focusing on whether, and the extent to which, indicators of social style covary ...

Integrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 5, Page 936-947, September 2025.This study revealed the basic structures of gut mycobiota of three wild Rhinopithecus species. The gut mycobiota of Rhinopithecus showed close connection with their feeding habits, and there were associations between gut mycobiota and the host's living environments.
