Tails in Action
Arboreal habitats are three‐dimensionally complex and are composed of substrates that differ in size, compliance, and continuity. In response, arboreal vertebrates have evolved morphological and behavioral traits allowing them to successfully move through these environments. Prehensile tails constitute one of such adaptations, yet remain poorly studied. Variation in prehensile tail use between species might result in anatomical variations, as has…
L’huile de carapa chez les Wayãpi de Trois Sauts
Le carapa est un arbre de la famille des Méliacées présent en Afrique centrale, et en Amérique du Sud et Centrale. Trois espèces sont identifiées dans la région du bouclier guyanais dont deux en Guyane. Sur le Haut Oyapock, des inventaires floristiques préalables ont permis de mettre en lumière qu’il existe une importante population de Carapa guianensis Aubl. dont les graines sont utilisées par les Wayãpi pour la production d’huile. Cette étude a…
Coexistence and Conflict between the Island Flying fox (Pteropus hypomelanus) and Humans on Tioman Island, Peninsular Malaysia
As tropical landscapes become increasingly human-dominated, conflicts between people and wildlife threaten ecological processes. Old World fruit bats such as flying foxes are especially susceptible to extinction risk because there is low interest in their conservation, particularly when they are considered pests. In order to arrest fruit bat declines, there is an urgent need to understand human-bat conflict and its implications. On a tropical isl…
Averting biodiversity collapse in tropical forest protected areas
Primates in 21st century ecosystems
Contributors to this issue of the American Journal of Primatology were among the participants in an invited symposium at the 2008 Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation meeting in Paramaribo, Suriname. They were asked to assess how essential primates are to tropical ecosystems and, given their research interests, discuss how primate research contributes to the broader understanding about how ecosystems function. This introduction to th…
Causes and Consequences of a Tropical Forest Gold Rush in the Guiana Shield, South America
Statistical and spatial analyses of both historical time series and remotely sensed data show a link between the spatial distribution and growth of gold production across the Guiana Shield in northeast Amazonia. Results indicate that an exponential rise in production across an expanding area is primarily a delayed response to the 1971-1978 market flotation of international gold prices. The subsequent 10-fold (2-fold) average nominal (real) price …
