Prosimian hemoglobins
The ring‐tailed lemur, Lemur catta , shows a two‐component hemoglobin phenotype after alkaline electrophoresis. A difference in the amino acid sequence of the isolated α‐globins was observed at position 15 (α I‐Gly, α II‐Lys) and can account for the electrophoretic pattern of two hemoglobin components. Only one other amino acid difference was found in the sequence of the two globin chains: a neutral substitution occurs at position 53 (α I‐Gly, α …

Demographic components of gene frequency change in free‐ranging macaques on Cayo Santiago
Gene frequency profiles from January 1973 to January 1977 for three polymorphic loci were examined in Cayo Santiago rhesus social groups. The effects of demographic components (i.e., births, deaths, immigrations, emigrations, and group fission and fusion) on total change in gene frequencies are assessed. Allelic frequencies at the carbonic anhydrase II, 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, and transferrin loci were analyzed in four social groups. In…

Models for lineal effects in rhesus group fissions
Gene distributions in daughter groups produced by three rhesus monkey group fissions are analyzed. Data employed are for the Tf, 6PGD, and CA II electrophoretic marker systems in the fissions producing new daughter groups F and M, F and O, and J and N in the Cayo Santiago rhesus colony. Wide variations in F ST values were observed among the different markers in the various fissions. Overall, the observed F ST values exceeded predictions of simple…

Chromosomes of Lemuriformes. IV. Karyotype evolution in Lemur fulvus collaris (E. Geoffroy 1812)
The G‐banded karyotype of a feral Lemur fulvus collaris has a diploid number of 52; the nombre fondamental is 64. The karyotype consists of 6 pairs of biarmed autosomes, 19 pairs of acrocentric autosomes, and acrocentric sex chromosomes. Comparisons of the 2N = 52 complement with the 2N = 50 and 2N = 51 karyotypes published by Hamilton et al. ('77) supports the view that hybridization occurs naturally between animals with diploid numbers of 50 an…
Statistical methods for analyzing data on daily activity cycles of primates
Many fields studies on primates have recently been carried out in which quantitative data have been collected using instantaneous scan sampling techniques. However, data collected in this manner are difficult to analyze statistically because of the problem of independence of samples, and a number investigators have analyzed such data incorrectly. In this paper, we evaluate such analyses and suggest alternative techniques that may be more appropri…
Social group fission and the origin of intergroup genetic differentiation among the rhesus monkeys of Cayo Santiago
The serum transferrin locus is used to investigate the roles of the lineal effect of fission, male migration effect of fission, and genetic drift in causing intergroup genetic differentiation among the rhesus macaques of Cayo Santiago. These three mechanisms prove sufficient to explain the degrees of differentiation between the newly formed social groups A, K, and L as of July 1, 1971. The lineal effect of fission provides a baseline of intergrou…
Carbonic anhydrase heterozygosity and F ST distributions in Kenyan baboon troops
An analysis of the distribution of carbonic anhydrase alleles in troops of olive baboons, Papio cynocephalus , is reported. In an earlier study (Olivier, T. J., J. Buettner‐Janusch and V. Buettner‐Janusch, 1974, Am. J. Phys. Anthrop., 41 : 175–190) the authors found a significant excess of heterozygotes with a large amount of intertroop differentiation at the CA II locus. If balancing selection is acting on the CA II locus and maintaining an exce…

Genetic studies of free‐ranging macaques of Cayo Santiago I. Description of the population and some nonpolymorphic red cell enzymes
Phenotypes of eight red cell enzymes at nine genetic loci were determined in the semi‐free‐ranging population of rhesus macaques, Macaca mulatta , that inhabit Cayo Santiago. The following enzymes were examined electrophoretically: adenosine deaminase, glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase, indophenol oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, phosphoglucomutase‐1, phosphoglucomutase‐2, and purine …
Chromosomes of lemuriformes. II. Chromosome polymorphism in Lemur fulvus collaris (E. Geoffroy 1812)
Two previously unreported diploid numbers, 2N = 50 and 2N = 51, from five individual Lemur fulvus collaris are described. In both chromosome complements, the nombre fondamental is 64. The 2N = 50 complement is composed of 7 pairs of bi‐armed chromosomes, 17 pairs of acrocentric chromosomes with small short arms, and acrocentric sex chromosomes. The 2N = 51 complement is identical with these exceptions: Only one member equivalent to bi‐armed pair …
Genetic studies of free‐ranging macaques of Cayo Santiago II. 6‐Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and Nadh‐methemoglobin reductase (Nadh‐diaphorase)
For the population of 395 semi‐free‐ranging rhesus macaques ( Macaca mulatta ) that inhabited Cayo Santiago in 1976, 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase phenotypes of 378 animals were determined. Three phenotypes, controlled by two autosomal codominant alleles, PGD A and PGD B , were found by electrophoretic methods. The frequencies of the alleles are 0.898 and 0.102, respectively. The population, composed of five troops and peripheral males, is in …
Gm and Inv studies on baboons, Papio cynocephalus
Serum samples from 526 baboons ( Papio cynocephalus ) from 10 troops from the Laikipia district of northern Kenya, from 60 baboons from two troops from the Awash National Park, central Ethiopia, and from 127 baboons from South Africa were tested for Gm and Inv allotypes. Four of the 10 troops from Kenya formed a western cluster and six formed an eastern cluster. The clusters were separated by approximately 10 miles. The samples were tested for Gm…

Genetic studies of serum transferrins of free‐ranging rhesus macaques of Cayo Santiago, Macaca mulatta (Zimmerman 1780)
Transferrin phenotypes of plasma from 687 semi‐free‐ranging Macaca mulatta living on Cayo Santiago, Puerto Rico, were determined by starch‐gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Fifteen phenotypes, homozygous or heterozygous products of six codominant autosomal alleles, were present in the population. The 687 animals, prior to March 1973, were divided into eight troops plus peripheral males. By March 1, 1973 the size of the population was reduc…
Carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes in nine troops of Kenya baboons, Papio cynocephalus (Linnaeus 1766)
The distributions of alleles at the carbonic anhydrase I (CA I = CA B) and carbonic anhydrase II (CA II = CA C) loci in nine troops of Papio cynocephalus were determined. Two alleles were found at the CA I locus, and three at the CA II locus; the frequencies were: CA I a = 0.856; CA I b = 0.144; CA II a = 0.784; CA II b = 0.209; CA II c = 0.007. Results of tests for Hardy‐Weinberg equilibrium, homogeneity tests, and calculations of migration rate…

Chromosomes of lemuriformes. I. A chromosome complement of Lepilemur mustelinus (I. Geoffroy 1851)
The diploid chromosome number of two specimens of Lepilemur mustelinus (I. Geoffroy 1851) is 2N = 20. All of the chromosomes, except the Y chromosome, are metacentric or submetacentric; the Y chromosome is acrocentric and is the shortest chromosome in the complement. Satellites on autosomal pair 5 provide marked chromosomes for the animals studied and may be a marked pair for the species

Distribution of transferrin phenotypes in selected troops of Kenya baboons
The distribution of transferrin alleles in a group of common baboons, Papio cynocephalus of East Africa, was determined after starch gel electrophoresis of plasma and autoradiography of electrophoretograms. Three alleles, Tf A , Tf B , and Tf C , were found, in agreement with results previously reported. The frequencies of these alleles are Tf A = 0.276, Tf B = 0.515, Tf c = 0.209. The difference between the frequencies reported here and those re…

Use of Infrared Photography in Archaeological Field Work
Photographic emulsions sensitized to wave-lengths of radiation in the infrared region of the spectrum have been used in technical studies for a number of years. During excavation of the Barbeau Creek Rock Shelter, in Randolph County, southern Illinois, in 1952 and 1953, I experimented with infrared films, taking pictures of profiles in the site. The midden in this shelter consisted largely of a light, dun-colored loess which came from the tops of…
