Methodism & Globalization: The Historiography of an Imperial Movement
This essay examines recent historiography on Methodism, globalization, and empire, arguing that Methodism should be understood as an imperial religious movement shaped by, and active within, the political, cultural, and economic structures of imperialism. Moving beyond older Anglo‐American and denominational narratives, the essay surveys scholarship that places Methodism within global networks of mission, migration, race, political economy, and s…

Indentation as a technique to assess the mechanical properties of fallback foods
A number of living primates feed part‐year on seemingly hard food objects as a fallback. We ask here how hardness can be quantified and how this can help understand primate feeding ecology. We report a simple indentation methodology for quantifying hardness, elastic modulus, and toughness in the sense that materials scientists would define them. Suggested categories of fallback foods—nuts, seeds, and root vegetables—were tested, with accuracy che…

Seasonal variation in the feeding behavior and diet of Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata yakui) in lowland forest of Yakushima
The feeding behavior of the southern subspecies of Japanese macaque (Macaca fuscata yakui) was studied over a period of 18 months in warm temperate broad-leaved forest on the island of Yakushima, Japan. Focal animal data were collected for the eight adults in the troop. Over a full annual cycle, 35.0% of foraging on identified foods was on leaves and shoots, 30.2% on fleshy fruit, 13.2% on seeds, and 5.5% on flowers. Invertebrates and other anima…
Toughness and fiber content of major leaf foods of Japanese macaques (Macaca fuscata yakui) in Yakushima
During the spring, Japanese macaques in Yakushima feed predominantly on mature leaves of trees, vines, and ferns. They are selective in which parts of leaves they eat, and this study examines potential cues and consequences of typical patterns of selection. Toughness and fiber content (NDF) were assessed for 13 of the major leaf-food species from samples collected in the spring of 1994. The toughness of the petiole, the midrib, and two parts of t…
Supra‐annual variation in the influence of Myrica rubra fruit on the behavior of a troop of Japanese macaques in Yakushima
Observations were made on a well‐habituated natural troop of Japanese macaques ( Macaca fuscata yakui ), living in warm‐temperate, lowland forest in Yakushima. Between mid‐May and the end of June the macaques feed on the fruit of the evergreen tree Myrica rubra (Myricaceae). The fruit of this species are abundant in some years and scarce in others. Data were compared for two heavy‐fruiting years (1988 and 1990) and one poor‐fruiting year (1991) t…
