The primary objective of this proposal is to investigate the potential for establishing primate research sites in the vicinity of Georgetown, Guyana. Guyana is a promising country for long-term primate research as the forests are still relatively unaffected by human activity and the government is amenable to their protection. Additionally eight species of New World monkey are found in the country. The researchers will conduct a survey of two regions in order to determine the number of species present, their densities and distribution. If either of the regions is appropriate for long term research, the investigators will undertake to carry out an extensive study of the synecology of the the primates.

本提案的主要目的是调查 在附近建立灵长类动物研究基地的可能性 乔治敦，圭亚那。 圭亚那是一个有前途的国家， 灵长类动物研究，因为森林仍然相对不受影响， 人类活动和政府有责任保护他们。 此外，还发现了八种新世界猴， 国家 研究人员将对两个地区进行调查， 为了确定存在的物种数量，它们的密度 和分配。 如果任何一个地区适合长期 在长期研究中，研究人员将承诺开展一项 对灵长类动物群落生态学的广泛研究。
