通过对许多类人猿的长期研究，许多研究者发现亲缘关系会影响社会关系。诸如接近，社会梳理，统治地位和交配模式等因素已被证明与亲属关系有关。在本文中，我们报告的一组原猴（狐猴）的社会组织的初步研究结果，其中个人被确定和亲缘关系是已知的。我们发现，与非亲属和远亲动物相比，母系近亲更喜欢彼此梳理毛发，并保持亲密关系。此外，没有交配观察到母系。这些结果类似于在一些种类的蜻蜓中发现的结果。这项研究是在北卡罗来纳州达勒姆的杜克大学灵长类动物研究中心对一个半自由放养的群体进行的。
From long-term studies of a number of anthropoid species, many investigators have shown that kinship affinities affect social relationships. Factors such as proximity, social grooming, dominance rank, and mating patterns have been shown to be related to kinship. In this paper, we report the results of a preliminary study of the social organization of a group of prosimians (Lemur catta) in which individuals were identified and kinship affinities were known. We found that close matrilineal kin preferred to groom one another and to remain in close proximity more than did nonkin and distantly related animals. Furthermore, no copulations were observed within matrilines. These results are similar to those found in a number of species of anthropoids. This research was conducted on a semi-free-ranging group at the Duke University Primate Facility, Durham, North Carolina.
