四种金丝猴的生态和行为正迅速为人们所熟知。新的实地研究深入揭示了这些colobines惊人的适应性。饮食范围从典型的热带colobines饮食为主的地衣。这些猴子组成了一个群体,有时超过400只;这些群体是基于colobines中常见的一雄多雌的单位。我们回顾了仰鼻猴的饮食,范围使用和社会组织,然后探索社会生态学理论的力量来解释他们的多层次社会组织。
The ecology and behavior of the four species of Rhinopithecus, snub-nosed monkeys, are rapidly becoming well known. New field studies reveal in depth the striking adaptations of these colobines. Diets range from those typical for tropical colobines to diets dominated by lichens. The monkeys form bands, at times consisting of more than 400 individuals; these bands are based on the one-male, multi-female units common in colobines. We review the diet, range use, and social organization of snub-nosed monkeys, and then explore the power of socioecological theory to explain their multilevel social organization.
