We surveyed Bornean white-bearded gibbon, Hylobates albibarbis, population densities in lowland and hill dipterocarp forests within the Sari Bumi Kusama and Suka Jaya Makmur logging concessions. These surveys were conducted from 20 to 30 March 2018 in Sari Bumi Kusuma areas and 14 to 24 April 2018 in Suka Jaya Makmur. We used a fixed-point count method to detect and plot morning song bouts of gibbon groups at systematically placed listening posts. At each location in Sari Bumi Kusuma and Suka Jaya Makmur, 18 listening posts were established, and 2 observers noted and plotted gibbon morning great calls. Gibbon group density was higher at Suka Jaya Makmur than at Sari Bumi Kusuma; we estimated that there were 2.29 groups per square kilometre in the former area and 1.86 groups/km2 in the latter. Since Bornean white-bearded gibbons are strictly protected by the Government of Indonesia and listed as an Endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), we need better management practices to protect the populations of this species within production forests (outside protected areas).
在Sari Bumi Kusama和Suka Jaya Makmur伐木特许权范围内，我们调查了婆罗洲白胡子长臂猿、大戟、低地和山地龙脑林的种群密度。这些调查于2018年3月20日至30日在Sari Bumi Kusuma地区和2018年4月14日至24日在Suka Jaya Makmur地区进行。我们采用定点计数法，在系统设置的监听站对长臂猿群的晨唱进行了检测和绘图。在Sari Bumi Kusuma和Suka Jaya Makmur的每个地点，建立了18个监听站，2名观察员记录并绘制了长臂猿早晨的鸣叫声。长臂猿种群密度在Suka Jaya Makmur高于Sari Bumi Kusuma;前者每平方公里有2.29个类群，后者每平方公里有1.86个类群。由于婆罗洲白胡子长臂猿受到印度尼西亚政府的严格保护，并被国际自然保护联盟(IUCN)列为濒危物种，我们需要更好的管理措施来保护生产森林(保护区外)内该物种的种群。

Animal life activities are rhythmic and affected by seasonal periodicity. Based on 9 years of observations, we estimated the reproductive parameters of a wild, but provisioned Yunnan snub-nosed monkey (Rhinopithecus bieti) group at Xiangguqing in Baimaxueshan National Nature Reserve, Yunnan Province, China. We observed 84 infants (43 males and 41 females) from 41 females between 2010 and 2018. We found the birth sex ratio was 1:1, the female age at first birth was 6.13 years and infant mortality was about 15.5%. Nine years of data showed that the maximum birth season lasted 126 days, and the average length per year was 98.57 ± 18.71 days. R. bieti,characterized by strictly seasonal reproduction, started giving birth on February 1, and this ended on June 7, with a peak reached from March 4 to March 11 (10th week). The mean birth date was March 20 (79.21 ± 29.54 days), and the median birth date was March 11 (71st day). The mean interbirth interval (IBI) was approximately 2 years, and the IBIs among females whose infants had survived for 1 year were found to be significantly longer than those found in females who lost their infant within 1 year. Comparing the reproduction parameters among Asian and African colobines, we concluded that Asian and African colobines tend to have an IBI of 2 years or more, females tend to give birth at the age of 5–6 years, Rhinopithecus species had a strict seasonal reproductive pattern concentrated in February to April. Seasonal changes in food resources and climatic factors may be the main reasons for the variation in reproductive parameters in intraspecific and interspecific comparisons of Asian and African colobines.

Rarely observed in mammals, female dominance is documented in several of Madagascar’s lemurs. Although dominance affects many aspects of primates’ lives, studies have largely focused on dyadic agonistic interactions to characterise relationships. We explored the power structure of three diademed sifaka groups (Propithecus diadema) at Tsinjoarivo during the lean season (July-August, 325 h) using social behaviours, group leadership, displacements and feeding outcomes. Two groups had a hierarchy dominated by the breeding female, while the highest rank was held by the breeding male in the third; in dyadic interactions, breeding females dominated males in all groups. Inconsistencies in hierarchies suggest that groups vary, with rank related to kinship ties of breeders. Aggression and grooming were rare; adult females received aggression at lower frequencies than males. Group movements were led more by females and followed more by males, and female feeding priority was evident in displacements during feeding. However, males and females did not differ in feeding outcomes, as expected (particularly in the lean season) if female dominance (and/or male deference) serves to ensure better access for females. This unexpected pattern (female dominance despite rare aggression, clear female leadership and displacement, yet no observable benefit in grooming or feeding outcomes) defies easy explanation, and reinforces the fact that studies examining female power in lemurs should take a multifaceted approach. Further study is needed to understand this pattern, the physiological and reproductive consequences of female dominance (e.g. detecting subtler variation in food quality or intake rates) and exactly how (and when) the benefits of female dominance are manifested.

The ecological constraints model is well supported by data from most frugivorous primates; however, the prediction power of the model is weak for folivorous primates. From September 2016 to August 2017, we collected comparative data on time budgets, daily path lengths and diets of four groups of white-headed langurs (Trachypithecus leucocephalus), including two large groups (G-DS and G-ZWY) and two small groups (G-LZ and G-NN) in Chongzuo White-Headed Langur National Nature Reserve, Guangxi Province, Southwest China. The aim was to obtain evidence of foraging competition and to test the ecological constraints model on this highly folivorous primate in its karst habitat. The results showed that langurs in the larger groups spent more time traveling, less time resting, and had a longer average daily path length than those in the small groups. Diet composition and dietary diversity were not significantly different between the large and small groups. Our study demonstrates that langurs from large groups suffer scramble competition in limestone forests and supports the validity of the ecological constraints model for folivores.

Our study presents the first evidence on how target animacy impacts on manual laterality in the Hylobatidae and contributes to filling the knowledge gap between monkeys and great apes in primate evolution of emotional lateralization. Eleven captive individuals of northern white-cheeked gibbons (Nomascus leucogenys) were chosen as focal subjects. There were significantly more ambipreferent individuals than left/right-handed individuals for both inanimate (χ2(1, n = 11) = 7.364, p = 0.007) and animate (χ2(1, n = 11) = 4.455, p = 0.035) targets, meaning no significant group-level hand preference. The right hand was more frequently used than the left hand for inanimate targets whereas the left hand was more frequently used than the right hand for animate targets, although the interaction between target animacy and hand use was not significant (proportion: F1, 10 = 0.283, p = 0.607; rate: F1, 10 = 0.228, p = 0.643). Our findings in N. leucogenys could not fully support either the tool use theory or the right hemisphere hypothesis.

Primates’ positional behaviours provide information for understanding relationships among morphology, ecology and behavioural flexibility. From September 2005 to August 2006, we collected data via instantaneous scan sampling on positional behaviours in François’ langurs at Nonggang Nature Reserve, south-west China. We predicted that these langurs would use (1) leaping as the predominant locomotor mode and (2) bipedal standing more frequently in the rainy season than in the dry season. Our result showed that leaping was the dominant locomotor mode (38.38%), followed by quadrupedal walking (31.2%), vertical climbing (25.1%) and quadrupedal running (5.3%). The ground was the most frequently used stratum during movement (33.4%). Most locomotion through trees occurred on small- (48.7%) and medium-sized (47.6%) substrates. Locomotor mode, forest stratum use and substrate use during movement did not vary seasonally. When stationary, sitting was the most common posture (92.1%), followed by bipedal standing (3.7%), lying (3.5%), quadrupedal standing (0.6%), suspending (0.2%) and back-lying (<0.1%). Posture varied significantly with the season. During resting, langurs used sitting and bipedal standing more frequently in the dry season, while adopting lying more frequently in the rainy season. During feeding, sitting was adopted more frequently in the rainy than in the dry season, whereas bipedal standing was used more frequently in the dry season. Langurs spent more feeding time on the ground in the dry than in the rainy season. Locomotor patterns in François’ langurs are likely linked to morphological and anatomical characteristics, along with the limestone forest’s structure. Our result completely supported prediction 1 but not prediction 2. This study suggests that seasonal variation in positional behaviour might result from the temporal difference in spatial distribution of foods and behavioural thermoregulation strategy. We found that François’ langurs adjusted positional behaviour in response to seasonality, and this behavioural flexibility allows them to survive in a variety of habitats, including limestone forests.

Leucism is the lack or reduction in pigmentation in the most or parts of the body, but not in the eyes and body extremities. It is extremely rare in primates and has never been reported for Callithrix, a genus endemic to Brazil. We searched for individuals of Callithrix jacchus and C. penicillata with pigmentation anomalies in a systematic survey of three protected areas in the Atlantic Forest, within museum collections in Brazil, and opportunistically during field studies. Since 2008, we have recorded 8 individuals with leucism in small urban and periurban forest patches. Four were from native populations of C. penicillata in Cerrado savannahs and of C. jacchus in the Caatinga xeric scrubland, and 4 were from populations of hybrids between C. jacchus and C. penicillata in invaded areas in the coastal Atlantic Forest. We found no pigmentation abnormalities in museum specimens. We hypothesize that the observed leucism may be linked to inbreeding within the native range, but to hybridization within the invaded range, and discuss the likely ecological consequences to leucistic individuals.
