Strange Tunes—Acoustic Variation and Character Displacement in a Tarsier Hybrid Zone
Natural hybridization provides valuable insights into evolutionary processes, such as speciation and the forces driving or hindering it. Sulawesi tarsiers Tarsius dentatus and T. lariang hybridize within a limited area, suggesting selection against hybrids. Their species- and sex-specific duet songs might serve as a premating barrier in sympatry, especially if differences are strengthened by character displacement. Individuals of mixed origin mig…
Tarsius wallacei
The Social System of Lariang Tarsiers (Tarsius lariang) as Revealed by Genetic Analyses
Habitat use analysis of Dian’s tarsier (Tarsius dianae) in a mixed-species plantation in Sulawesi, Indonesia
Habitat‐specific ranging patterns of Dian's tarsiers ( Tarsius dianae ) as revealed by radiotracking
Dian's tarsier Tarsius dianae , one of the smallest primates on earth, is endemic to the central regions of Sulawesi, Indonesia. To evaluate the effects of increasing land use by humans on the ranging patterns of this nocturnal insect hunter, four study plots along a gradient of anthropogenic disturbance were selected for this study. In these plots, 71 tarsiers were captured with mist nets, and 30 of these were fitted with 3.9 g radiotransmitters…
