MHC-DRB heterozygosity may increase subordinate but not alpha male siring success in white-faced capuchin monkeys (Cebus imitator)
Sexual Signaling and Sociosexual Behaviors in Relation to Rank, Parasites, Hormones, and Age in Male Vervet Monkeys ( Chlorocebus pygerythrus ) in Uganda
Secondary sexual characteristics, and the extent to which they are expressed, can convey information about the signaller. The blue scrotum and red penis of male vervet monkeys ( Chlorocebus pygerythrus ) make them a good species in which to examine inter‐ and intramale variation in signal expression. We quantified genital hue and luminance of male vervets at Lake Nabugabo, Uganda from standardized photos of male genitalia taken in May to June 201…
And Baby Makes Three
In group‐living primates, male investment in infants is highly variable. Previous research on polygynandrous primates found that male care of infants, whether direct or indirect, may be a means to increase offspring survival, increase social status, invest in future mating opportunities, and/or invest in future social or coalition partners, any of which may increase fitness outcomes. Relationships between male white‐faced capuchins ( Cebus imitat…
Breeding Seasonality in Female Vervet Monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) Living in an Anthropogenic Landscape
How individual, social, and ecological conditions influence dispersal decisions in male vervet monkeys
Dispersal between social groups reduces the risk of inbreeding and can improve individuals' reproductive opportunities. However, this movement has costs, such as increased risk of predation and starvation, loss of allies and kin support, and increased aggression associated with entering the new group. Dispersal strategies, such as the timing of movement and decisions on whether to transfer alone or in parallel with a peer, involve different costs…
Male endocrine response to seasonally varying environmental and social factors in a neotropical primate, Cebus capucinus
OBJECTIVE: Circannual variation in reproduction is pervasive in birds and mammals. In primates, breeding seasonality is variable, with seasonal birth peaks occurring even in year-round breeders. Environmental seasonality is reportedly an important contributor to the observed variation in reproductive seasonality. Given that food availability is the primary factor constraining female reproduction, predictions concerning responsiveness to environme…
Comparing options for pair housing rhesus macaques using behavioral welfare measures
In a biomedical research environment, research or management procedures may render continuous full contact pairing of rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) unfeasible. This study aimed to determine whether separation on a frequent basis or housing in adjacent cages with tactile contact interferes with the behavioral benefits of continuous full contact. Behavioral data (1260 hours) were collected from 32 adult females and 16 adult males housed at two N…
Male Response to Female Ovulation in White-Faced Capuchins (Cebus capucinus)
Transmission Patterns of Pinworms in Two Sympatric Congeneric Primate Species
The Association of Intergroup Encounters, Dominance Status, and Fecal Androgen and Glucocorticoid Profiles in Wild Male White‐Faced Capuchins ( Cebus capucinus )
Androgens play a role in male reproductive competition, frequently via aggression, while glucocorticoids are associated with the stress response. However, the relationships of these hormones with different sources of competition (intra‐ vs. intergroup) and dominance status are highly variable. Here, we consider the fecal androgen (f A ) and glucocorticoid (f GC ) profiles of alpha and subordinate male C ebus capucinus in the context of intergroup…
The effects of observer presence on the behavior of Cebus capucinus in Costa Rica
We report on the responses of Cebus capucinus in the Santa Rosa Sector of the Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Costa Rica, to the presence of observers over a 4‐week period. Study groups were habituated to different degrees: (1) Cerco de Piedra (CP): continuous observations began in 1984; (2) Exclosure (EX): focus of an 18‐month study on males from 1998 to 1999; and (3) NBH: never studied/followed but the group frequently encounters researchers. …
