Masturbation in a male Phayre's langur, Trachypithecus phayrei [PDF]
Masturbation is a common auto-sexual behaviour in humans but is not explicitly known in a major portion of non-human primates. We report the first masturbatory behaviour in a male Phayre's langur, Trachypithecus phayrei, observed in a semi-evergreen ...

Look past the cooperative eye hypothesis: reconsidering the evolution of human eye appearance. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The external appearance of the human eye has been prominently linked to the evolution of complex sociocognitive functions in our species. The cooperative eye hypothesis (CEH) proposes that human eyeballs, with their weakly expressed conjunctival and scleral pigmentation, are uniquely conspicuous and evolved under selective pressures to behave ...

First Comprehensive Characterization of Phayre’s Leaf-Monkey (Trachypithecus phayrei) Karyotype
The chromosomal homologies of human (Homo sapiens—HSA) and Trachypithecus phayrei (TPH—Phayre’s leaf-monkey, family Cercopithecidae) have previously been studied by using classical chromosome staining/banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)

Increased sampling reveals novel lineages of Entamoeba: consequences of genetic diversity and host specificity for taxonomy and molecular detection. [PDF]
To expand the representation for phylogenetic analysis, ten additional complete Entamoeba small-subunit rRNA gene sequences were obtained from humans, non-human primates, cattle and a tortoise. For some novel sequences no corresponding morphological data
