Measuring the Impact of Forest Edges on the Highly Arboreal Sahamalaza Sportive Lemur, Lepilemur Sahamalaza, in North-Western Madagascar
The progressive fragmentation of forest habitat is causing an increase in edge areas that may differ structurally and in quality from forest interiors. We investigated the impact of edge effects on habitat structure, behaviour, and ecology of the small, nocturnal, and highly arboreal Sahamalaza sportive lemur, Lepilemur sahamalaza . To understand edge effects, we established edge-to-interior gradients using temperature, humidity, and light intens…
Spatiotemporal distribution of individuals as an indicator for the social system of Lepilemur sahamalaza
Primate social systems are highly diverse, complicating the classification of particularly elusive species that are difficult to observe. The spatial distribution of individuals over time is a critica lindicator for the social organization and long‐term studies are important to establish patterns of social interactions. In recent years, species of the cryptic, nocturnal sportive lemurs of the genus Lepilemur were found to live in pairs in which a…
Use of space and home range characteristics of Lepilemur mittermeieri , an endangered sportive lemur endemic to the Ampasindava peninsula, north‐west Madagascar
Lepilemur mittermeieri , a little‐studied sportive lemur of north‐west Madagascar, endemic to the Ampasindava Peninsula, faces habitat loss through forest degradation and rapid fragmentation. Understanding its habitat requirement is the first step toward preservation of this threatened forest‐dependent species. In this study, we gathered data on the use of space and home range characteristics of L. mittermeieri . We studied individuals from early…
The Effects of Climate Seasonality on Behavior and Sleeping Site Choice in Sahamalaza Sportive Lemurs, Lepilemur sahamalaza
Temperature, rainfall, and resource availability may vary greatly within a single year in primate habitats. Many primate species show behavioral and physiological adaptations to this environmental seasonality, including changes to their diets and activity. Sahamalaza sportive lemurs ( Lepilemur sahamalaza ) inhabit the northwest of Madagascar and have been studied only during the dry, colder period of the year. We investigated potential effects o…
Ecological and Anthropogenic Correlates of Activity Patterns in Eulemur
Call Repertoire of the Sahamalaza Sportive Lemur, Lepilemur sahamalazensis
The largest relative testis size among primates and aseasonal reproduction in a nocturnal lemur, M irza zaza
OBJECTIVES: Testis size is an indirect indicator of a species' mating system, along with sexual size and canine dimorphism, existence and usage of mating and advertisement calls as well as the spatial distribution of males and females ready to mate in solitary species. Upon its recent discovery, the northern giant mouse lemur Mirza zaza was suggested to have a polygynandrous mating system and to exhibit seasonal breeding. We tested these predicti…
Averting Lemur Extinctions amid Madagascar's Political Crisis
Community-based management, ecotourism, and researchers' presence are proposed to prevent lemur extinctions.
