非洲小丛林宝宝Galago moholi被描述为食物专家,只吃小型节肢动物和主要来自相思树的口香糖。我们研究了一群G人。这是一种高度分散的栖息地,位于其自然分布范围的最南端,位于南非。在这个栖息地,我们随机观察到了以越冬果树Pappa capsis的果实为食的丛林幼崽。树木组成的抽样调查表明,尽管该地区的优势树种属于相思树属,但A.Karrootree普遍缺失,只有少量的树胶在其他Acacases种上才能找到。OFP的分析。辣椒果显示出高水平的蛋白质、脂肪和能量含量,使其成为潜在的重要食物来源。在昆虫可获得性低的情况下度假的冬季。我们的观察是第一个记录在案的水果喂食案例。Moholi,这表明该物种并不像之前报道的那样是食物专家,但可以在有水果的情况下补充饮食。
The African lesser bushbaby,Galago moholi, is described as a food specialist, feeding exclusively on small arthropods and gum primarily fromAcacia karrootrees. We studied a population ofG. moholiin a highly fragmented habitat in the southernmost part of its natural distributional range in South Africa. In this habitat, we opportunistically observed bushbabies feeding on fruits of the winter fruiting tree,Pappea capensis.Plot counts of tree composition revealed that although the dominant tree species in the area belonged to the genusAcacia,A. karrootrees were widely absent and gum could only be found in small quantities on otherAcaciaspecies. The analysis ofP. capensisfruits showed high levels of protein, fat, and energy content, making the fruits a potentially important food source forG. moholiduring winter when insect availability is low. Our observation is the first documented case of fruit feeding inG. moholi, suggesting that the species is not a food specialist as previously reported but can supplement its diet with fruit when available.
