Old World Monkeys
by Paul Whitehead and Clifford Jolly
Pages: 544
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Edition: 2000
Language: English
ISBN: 978-0521571241
Format: PDF
Size: 8 MB
Description
Old World monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) are the most successful and diverse group of living nonhuman primates in terms of the number of species, behavioral repertoires, and ecology. Among our closest living relatives, they have much to teach us about the processes of evolution and the principles of ecology. This volume presents a broad, technical account of cercopithecoid biology including molecular, behavioral, and morphological approaches to phylogeny, population structure, allometry, fossil history, functional morphology, ecology, cognitive capabilities, social behavior, and conservation. It will be the definitive reference on this group for researchers, graduate students and advanced undergraduates in primatology, animal behavior, paleontology, morphology, systematics, and physical anthropology.
Enjoy! :up:
