Cayo Santiago—A scientific treasure
This article briefly reviews the contributions of Clarence R. Carpenter in establishing the free‐ranging colony of rhesus monkeys on Cayo Santiago, the Caribbean Primate Research Center and his legacy in primatology. Am. J. Primatol. 78:4–5, 2016. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc
Islet cell antibodies in Sulawesi macaques
Older monkeys of the Sulawesian species Macaca nigra spontaneously develop a lesion in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans in which there is deposition of amyloid and gradual degeneration of all cells, which can lead eventually to development of diabetes mellitus. Islet cell antibodies (ICA), formed in response to the release of cellular antigens, can be used to detect the islet lesion and to monitor the progression of each monkey toward diabetes…
Population status of nonhuman primates in Asia, with emphasis on rhesus macaques in India
Over 50 species of nonhuman primates live in 20 nations in Asia, interacting ecologically with over 3 billion people. The population status of different species of primates ranges from rare and endangered to abundant and relatively secure. The distribution, numbers, and trends of most species are not known, even for those such as Macaca fascicularis which are extensively used in biomedical research. Field surveys of rhesus populations since 1959 …
Rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) in the Taihang mountains, Jiyuan county, Henan, China
Population ecology of rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta ) at Nanwan Nature Reserve, Hainan, China
Rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta ) at the Nanwan peninsula of Hainan Island, China, have been observed in the field for 25 years, and have been studied intensively for eight years, beginning in 1981. There were about 115 monkeys in 5 natural groups when the Nanwan Reserve was founded in 1965. From 1965 to 1984, the number of groups increased from 5 to 19, and the total population increased from 115 to 930 individuals, an annual population increase…
Population structure of Hylobates concolor in Bawanglin Nature Reserve, Hainan, China
The Hainan gibbon continues to survive in Bawanglin Nature Reserve in four social groups totalling 21 individuals. Twelve births have occurred since 1982, and 11 of these individuals survive in 1989. Only three of these 12 births have been females, however. The total female population consists of 6 adult females, two of which are at least 19 years old, and three juvenile females born since 1985. Two of the four social groups have only one adult f…
Population survey of macaques in northern Sulawesi
A field survey of 25 sites in Sulawesi Utara (north Sulawesi) in 1987 and 1988 found macaques in 16 of these sites. The most viable population of Macaca nigra was found in the Tangkoko reserve at an estimated density of 76.2 monkeys/km 2 , which is less than one‐third the abundance reported in the late 1970s by the MacKinnons. The adjacent reserves of Batuangus and Duasudara had only 22 monkeys/km 2 , yielding a population estimate for these thre…
Extinction of rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatto) in Xinglung, North China

Partial recovery and a new population estimate of rhesus monkey populations in India
The purpose of this field study has been to assess major changes in rhesus monkey populations of north central India over a period of 28 yrs from 1959 to 1986. Population censuses have been done in Aligarh District three times per year, and extensive regional surveys were done in 1959–1960, 1964–1965, 1977–1978, and 1985–1986. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, rhesus populations in India declined more than 90%, from an estimated 2 million animals i…
Ecological constraints on the development of infant independence in rhesus
Mother‐infant dyads were observed among three populations of rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta ) in India and Nepal. This research had three purposes: 1) to examine the influences of maternal activities (ie, feeding, locomotion, and rest) and arboreality on the early development of infant independence; 2) to determine whether interpopulation differences in the development of infant independence can be accounted for by correlated differences in mate…

Group fission in free-ranging rhesus monkeys of Tughlaqabad, Northern India
Population growth of free‐ranging rhesus monkeys at Tughlaqabad
A population of rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta ) at the ancient site of Tughlaqabad on the southern outskirts of New Delhi, India, showed moderate growth throughout the 1960s and 1970s and very rapid growth in the last 4 years. Between July 1980 and July 1983, the population increased 79%, from two groups of 160 monkeys to five groups of 286 monkeys, an average annual increase of 21.4%. The natality of the population has been high, averaging 82.…
Polyspecific groups of macaques on the kowloon peninsula, new territories, Hong Kong
Three polyspecific groups of free‐ranging macaques were observed in July and August of 1980 and 1981 in the forests of the New Territories of mainland Hong Kong. Two groups were composed of rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta ) and long‐tailed or crab‐eating monkeys ( M. fascicularis ), and one group was composed of both the former plus Japanese macaques ( M. fuscata ). All three groups contained hybrids between M. mulatta and M. fascicularis . This …

Aggressive behavior in the free-ranging rhesus monkeys of kathmandu, nepal
We present a composite sample of the aggressive behavior of free-ranging rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta), recorded at two temples in Kathmandu, Nepal. We analyze the total number and the rate per monkey of threats, chases, attacks, fights, and aggressive acts directed at other species (principally humans), in order to elucidate social dynamics of the troop as a whole. Our 1,506 hours of observation were divided among the four seasons; between a.m…
Parturition in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta)
Food deprivation
The southern grasshopper mouse (Onychomys torridus) is a predatory and aggressive rodent native to the semi-arid scrub deserts of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. Its natural diet consists primarily of arthropods and small vertebrates. In this study, we have evaluated the effects of food deprivation on the predatory behavior of adult male and female grasshopper mice to crickets (Acheta domesticus) and laboratory mice (Mus muscu…
