Evaluating Graduate Student Diversity in Forensic Anthropology
In this paper we explore why graduate programs with a focus in forensic anthropology typically lack racial and ethnic diversity. Specifically, we ask how application and enrollment data from our MA anthropology program at Texas State University, a Hispanic-serving institution (HSI), compare to census data and national data sets. We further compare diversity in 2020 applications in the Texas State MA anthropology program to the programs at Califor…
Interannual Variation in Diet, Dietary Diversity, and Dietary Overlap in Three Sympatric Strepsirrhine Species in Southeastern Madagascar
Frugivory in four sympatric lemurs
Although some conservationists accept that not all species can be saved, we illustrate the difficulty in deciding which species are dispensable. In this article, we examine the possibility that the integrity of a forest relies on its entire faunal assemblage. In Madagascar, one faunal group, the lemurs, accounts for the greatest biomass and species richness among frugivores. For example, 7 of the 13 sympatric lemur species in Madagascar's eastern…

Population demography and social structure changes in Eulemur fulvus rufus from 1988 to 2003
Eulemur fulvus rufus has been described as having stable multi‐male/multi‐female groups, a male‐biased sex ratio, and female philopatry. However, in a 16‐year study of this subspecies we documented a great deal of demographic change as several groups permanently fissioned, some groups disappeared, and new groups formed. We split the dataset into two periods, 1988 to 1993 and 1994 to 2003, which coincided with the first disappearance of a study gr…
Does female dominance facilitate feeding priority in black‐and‐white ruffed lemurs ( Varecia variegata ) in southeastern Madagascar
Although many Malagasy lemurs are thought to be female dominant and to have female feeding priority, to date the relationship between these behaviors has been rigorously established only in Lemur catta , and other ways that females might achieve feeding priority have not been examined closely. Erhart and Overdorff [International Journal of Primatology 20:927–940, 1999] suggested that one way female primates achieve feeding priority is to initiate…
Female Coordination of Group Travel in Wild Propithecus and Eulemur
Infanticide in Propithecus diadema edwardsi
Kin recognition by paternal half‐siblings in captive Papio cynocephalus
Our objective in this study was to evaluate whether a group of paternally related, subadult baboons (Papio cynocephalus) would preferentially interact with kin or nonkin when they had been raised apart from kin other than their mothers. Subjects and their mothers were removed from the breeding group and placed in alternate housing within 24 h after birth to ensure that the subjects would not have a social history with either their sire or their h…
