Sleeping site selection by proboscis monkeys (Nasalis larvatus) in West Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Primates spend at least half their lives sleeping; hence, sleeping site selection can have important effects on behavior and fitness. As proboscis monkeys (Nasalis larvatus) often sleep along rivers and form bands (aggregations of one male groups) at their sleeping sites, understanding sleeping site selection may shed light on two unusual aspects of this species' socioecology: their close assoc...
متن کاملNasalization by Nasalis larvatus: Larger noses audiovisually advertise conspecifics in proboscis monkeys
Male proboscis monkeys have uniquely enlarged noses that are prominent adornments, which may have evolved through their sexually competitive harem group social system. Nevertheless, the ecological roles of the signals encoded by enlarged noses remain unclear. We found significant correlations among nose, body, and testis sizes and a clear link between nose size and number of harem females. Ther...
متن کاملEffect of Habitat Quality on Primate Populations in Kalimantan: Gibbons and Leaf Monkeys as Case Studies
Primate ecologists seek to answer fundamental questions about how and why particular ecological factors influence primate individuals, groups, and populations (Isbell 1991; Sterck et al. 1997; van Schaik 1983; Wrangham 1980). While primatologists have used a variety of approaches to address these questions, the study of a particular taxon across a range of ecological conditions provides a parti...
متن کاملEvaluating methods for estimating home ranges using GPS collars: A comparison using proboscis monkeys (Nasalis larvatus)
The development of GPS tags for tracking wildlife has revolutionised the study of home ranges, habitat use and behaviour. Concomitantly, there have been rapid developments in methods for estimating habitat use from GPS data. In combination, these changes can cause challenges in choosing the best methods for estimating home ranges. In primatology, this issue has received little attention, as the...
متن کاملGenetic diversity and distinctiveness of the proboscis monkeys (Nasalis larvatus) of the Klias Peninsula, Sabah, Malaysia.
In this study, we sequenced a partial segment of the mitochondrial control region from 21 proboscis monkeys of the Klias peninsula, the last large population remaining on the west coast of Sabah, Malaysia. Our results showed that this population retains substantial genetic variation, and subpopulations from different river systems in the central and southern portions of the Klias share multiple...
