Nutritional consequences of folivory in a small‐bodied lemur ( Lepilemur leucopus )
OBJECTIVES: Small-bodied folivores are rare because processing leaves often requires extensive gut adaptations and lengthy retention times for fiber fermentation. However, the <1 kg nocturnal white-footed sportive lemurs (Lepilemur leucopus) persist on a leaf-based diet. We investigated how extrinsic (i.e., seasonality in temperature and food availability) and intrinsic factors (i.e., reproductive state) influence nutrient intake and explored how…
Competition for food in a solitarily foraging folivorous primate ( Lepilemur leucopus )
Group-living folivorous primates can experience competition for food, and feeding competition has also been documented for solitarily foraging gummivorous and omnivorous primates. However, little is known about the types and consequences of feeding competition in solitary folivorous foragers. We conducted this study in the spiny forest of Berenty Reserve, southern Madagascar, to characterize the competitive regime of the nocturnal solitarily fora…
Defining the Low End of Primate Social Complexity
Whereas other species of sportive lemurs (genus Lepilemur ) have been described as living in dispersed pairs, which are characterized by spatial overlap but a lack of affinity or affiliation between one adult male and female, existing reports on the social organization of the white-footed sportive lemur ( Lepilemur leucopus ) are conflicting, describing them as either living in dispersed one-male multifemale systems or pairs. We conducted this st…
