Diurnal distribution of loud calls in sympatric wild indris (Indri indri) and ruffed lemurs (Varecia variegata)
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…
Alaotran gentle lemur
Social system of the Alaotran gentle lemur ( Hapalemur griseus alaotrensis )
Group composition and mating system were investigated in wild Alaotran gentle lemurs ( Hapalemur griseus alaotrensis ) using genetic markers. These small‐bodied herbivorous and cathemeral primates are endemic to the reed and papyrus beds around Lac Alaotra in Madagascar. They live in small groups in small, defended territories. Data were collected during the rainy seasons in 1996, 1997, and 1999, and include 99 individuals from 22 neighboring soc…
Social organization of the Alaotran gentle lemur (Hapalemur griseus alaotrensis)
Knowledge of the social organization of lemurs is still limited for most species. Where there is sufficient information, it has been shown that lemur social organization differs in essential points from that of other primates. In the field study reported here, demographic structure and life-history processes were investigated in order to characterize the social organization of the Alaotran gentle lemur (Hapalemur griseus alaotrensis). Data were o…
Group encounters and territoriality in wild Alaotran gentle lemurs (Hapalemur griseus alaotrensis)
During a 3 month field study, 18 group encounters between four groups of Alaotran gentle lemurs (Hapalemur griseus alaotrensis) were observed in the Lake Alaotra marshland in Madagascar. Behaviors observed during group encounters are described, and quantitative data on intergroup interactions and ranging patterns are discussed in the context of territoriality. Intergroup interactions varied in their intensity, ranging from visual monitoring, scen…
