Postural Control Differences between Patients with Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction and Healthy People during Gait
PTTD patients showed more conservative and cautious postural strategies which may help maintain balance and reduce the need for postural adjustment during PTTD gait. They also showed more medially shifted COP patterns than healthy controls during single-support phase of walking. Dynamic postural control outcomes could be used to develop effective gait training programs aimed at alleviating a medial shift of COP (everted foot) for individuals with…
Population genetics of wild Macaca fascicularis with low‐coverage shotgun sequencing of museum specimens
OBJECTIVES: Long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) are widely distributed throughout the mainland and islands of Southeast Asia, making them a useful model for understanding the complex biogeographical history resulting from drastic changes in sea levels throughout the Pleistocene. Past studies based on mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of long-tailed macaque museum specimens have traced their colonization patterns throughout the archipelag…

Reproductive success in relation to dominance rank in the absence of prime‐age males in Barbary macaques
In some primate species dominance rank of males is correlated with reproductive success, whereas in other species this relationship is inconsistent. Barbary macaques ( Macaca sylvanus ) live in a promiscuous mating system in which males are ranked in a dominance hierarchy that influences their access to females. High‐ranking males usually monopolize fertile females during their estrous period and show increased mating activities. Subadult males g…

The evolution of human reproduction: A primatological perspective
Successful reconstruction of any aspect of human evolution ideally requires broad-based comparisons with other primates, as recognition of general principles provides a more reliable foundation for inference. Indeed, in many cases it is necessary to conduct comparisons with other placental mammals to test interpretations. This review considers comparative evidence with respect to the following topics relating to human reproduction: (1) size of th…

Phylogenetic history of sifakas (Propithecus: (Lemuriformes) derived from mtDNA sequences
The sifakas (Propithecus) include three species containing up to 10 described subspecies, whose evolutionary relationships remain contentious. In particular, it is unclear whether P. verreauxi deckeni and P.v. coronatus populations are differentiated at the subspecific level. Furthermore, the taxonomic status of the recently discovered P. tattersalli and its phylogenetic position also require further examination. About 2,400 bp of mitochondrial D…

Cathemerality in the mongoose lemur,Eulemur mongoz
Results of a 10 month study of the mongoose lemur (Eulemur mongoz) at Anjamena are presented. The activity pattern is documented in detail for both wet and dry seasons based on observations conducted over the entire 24 h period. E. mongoz was found to be cathemeral throughout the year but exhibited shifts towards more diurnal activity in the wet season and more nocturnal activity in the dry season. The cathemeral activity pattern in the mongoose …

Rate of metabolism in the smallest simian primate, the pygmy marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea)
Rate of metabolism was measured with six adult pygmy marmosets (Cebuella pygmaea) at regulated ambient temperatures ranging between 20 degrees C and 35 degrees C. A novel combined nest box and metabolic chamber was designed to allow nighttime measurements on immobile animals in their home cage without disturbance. The basal rate of metabolism (BMR) was 98 ml O2 h-1, representing 74% of the value expected from the equation of McNab [Quarterly Revi…

Cranial morphology and adaptations in Eocene Adapidae. II. The Cambridge skull of Adapis parisiensis
One of the most complete skulls of the early primate Adapis parisiensis is in the collection of the Department of Zoology, Cambridge University. This exceptionally well‐preserved male skull, from Quercy in southern France, is important in showing relatively small orbits that are highly convergent, a distinct ethmoid component in the medial orbital wall, very small infraorbital foramina, a well‐preserved auditory region with the stapedial canal ab…

Allometry and prediction in Hominoids: A solution to the problem of intervening variables
To avoid misinterpretation of allometric exponents determined from interspecific allometric comparisons, specific conditions must be met with respect to the common reference variable. Body weight is considered to be the best general indication of overall size and is hence widely acknowledged to be the most suitable reference variable. However, because of the paucity of recorded body weights for museum specimens, various comparative studies have u…
