Owl monkeys were one of the least understood primates then; knowledge from wild populations was only beginning to emerge and there had been some substantial research in colonies of captive individuals. The situation is very different today. Research on captive owl monkeys has continued to develop, with valuable contributions to the health and medical sciences. And there is now enough information on the behavior, ecology, conservation, and biogeography of the genus that merits a synthesis...The book synthesizes new field data on the biogeography, behavioral ecology, circadian biology, population biology and demography spanning their entire continental range from Panamá to Argentina. It includes theoretical perspectives drawn from evolutionary biology, biological anthropology, anatomy, morphology and physiology, genetics, endocrinology and conservation biology to examine a specic set of adaptations that have allowed owl monkeys to exploit the nocturnal niche while functioning in a pair-living sexually monogamous system with remarkable | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | aotus cebid or Pithecid; Aotus zonalis; night monkeys; Argentinian monkeys; new world primates; South ame | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-13555-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-13557-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-13555-2Series ISSN 1574-3489 Series E-ISSN 1574-3497 | issn_series | 1574-3489 | copyright | Eduardo Fernandez-Duque 2023 |
