多层次的社会（MLS），在更大的社会矩阵中，多尔繁殖单位仅在少数哺乳动物的物种中记录在更复杂的社会系统中与一个或多个全男子组成的群体，以季节性和交换成员，从而支持基因流和避免群体。终极组。结果表明，环境和系统发育因素在灵长类动物MLS的进化中都很重要。
多级社会（MLS）是在哺乳动物中发现的一个复杂的群体组织形式，但在这里，MLS的起源在这里表明，从祖先的亚洲元素中发现的独立的单人摩尔，多人单位的MLS。
Multilevel societies (MLS), in which polygynous reproductive units are nested in a larger social matrix, represent a highly complex social system documented only in a small number of mammalian species. Using long-term behavioural data, satellite telemetry and social network analysis, we present a new framework for understanding the function and social dynamics of the golden snub-nosed monkey MLS. Here we show that several one-male units form a cohesive breeding band that associates with one or more all-male units to form a herd. Herds seasonally aggregate and exchange members, thus facilitating gene flow and inbreeding avoidance. This MLS evolved from the aggregation of independent one-male, multifemale units that characterize ancestral Asian colobines; the evolutionary pathway leading to this MLS contrasts with that proposed for African papionins, which appear to have undergone internal fissioning of multimale–multifemale groups. The results suggest that both environmental and phylogenetic factors are important in the evolution of a primate MLS.
