Meat-eating by a wild Bornean orang-utan (Pongo pygmaeus)
Food Acquisition and Processing in Primates
Orangutan Energetics and the Influence of Fruit Availability in the Nonmasting Peat-swamp Forest of Sabangau, Indonesian Borneo
The orang-utan mating system and the unflanged male: A product of increased food stress during the late Miocene and Pliocene
Influence of Forest Seasonality on Gibbon Food Choice in the Rain Forests of Barito Ulu, Central Kalimantan
Selection of Fruit by Gibbons (Hylobates muelleri × agilis) in the Rain Forests of Central Borneo
Fruits of the Guianan flora By Marc G. M. van Roosmalen: Institute of Systematic Botany, University of Utrecht, and Silvicultural Department of Wageningen Agricultural University, 1985
The significance of call duration in howler monkeys
Gastrointestinal Allometry in Primates and Other Mammals
Bonobos: Generalized Hominid Prototypes or Specialized Insular Dwarfs? [and Comments and Replies]
Neontological, biochemical, and paleontological data indicate that the bonobo, Pan paniscus, is a specialized form that possesses relatively small teeth, is quadrupedally adapted, and is only minimally sexually dimorphic. The various specializations of bonobos could be adaptations to ecological restrictions encountered in the terrestrial island of tropical forest that comprises their home range. Bonobos possess specializations quite different fro…
Morphology of the gastrointestinal tract in primates: Comparisons with other mammals in relation to diet
Three categories of dietary adaptation are recognized— faunivory , frugivory , and folivory —according to the distinctive structural and biochemical features of animal matter, fruit, and leaves respectively, and the predominance of only one in the diets of most species. Mammals subsisting mainly on animal matter have a simple stomach and colon and a long small intestine, whereas folivorous species have a complex stomach and/or an enlarged caecum …
Malayan Forest Primates: Ten Years' Study in Tropical Rain Forest
On the behaviour of siamang after playback of their calls
Events preceding and following the birth of a wild siamang
Gibbon and Siamang
On the genesis of a group of siamang
A population of siamang in lowland dipterocarp forest at Kuala Lompat, Pahang, Malaysia, was studied discontinuously between April 1969 and November 1971. Between March and May 1970 a sub‐adult male in the main study group became increasingly peripheral. The frequency of aggressive interactions with the adult male increased, and the sub‐adult played a greater part in group calling sessions. These changes coincided with the onset of sexual activit…
