| surface morphology of the ciliary apparatus in the eye of galago senegalensis. | the folded portion of the ciliary body (pars plicata) in galago senegalensis consists of a series of processes extending from the flat region (pars plana) over the posterior half of the ciliary muscle to the posterior surface of the iris near the limbus. each process has an anterior portion (iridial process) that is distinguished by its surface morphology from a posterior portion (ciliary process). iridial processes attach to the iris and are devoid of zonular fibers, while ciliary processes, al ... | 1981 | 7330595 |
| the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus of tupaia glis: a golgi, nissl and acetylcholinesterase study. | morphology of neurons and afferent axons in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dlgn) of the tree shrew (tupaia glis) was studied using golgi-kopsch impregnated and nissl stained material. staining of acetylcholinesterase (ache) could inform about the distribution of this enzyme in the tree shrew's dlgn. the results can be summarized as follows: 1. two classes of neurons can be identified: class-i-neurons and class-ii-neurons. class-i-neurons correspond to geniculo-cortical relay neurons (gcr ... | 1981 | 7240727 |

| somatosensory thalamus of a prosimian primate (galago senegalensis). i. configuration of nuclei and termination of spinothalamic fibers. | the configuration of somatosensory relay nuclei and termination of spinothalamic fibers were studied in the dorsal thalamus of a prosimian primate(galago senegalensis) using nissl, klüver and barrera ('53), weil ('45), and fink and heimer ('67) methods. the ventral posterolateral nucleus (vpl) is divided into medial and lateral parts (vplm and vpll, respectively) by a sheet-like lamina of fibers. spinothalamic input to galago vpl is somatopically arranged; input from the forelimb terminates in v ... | 1980 | 7391270 |

| preoperative overtraining protects against form learning deficits after lateral occipital lesions in galago senegalensis. | bushbabies (galago senegalensis) trained on a form discrimination task in a two-choice apparatus prior to partial disruption of the central field representation of vision in striate cortex were found to be protected from postoperative deficit. these same animals were deficient in learning novel form discriminations. pre- and postoperative tests of these subjects on discrimination of fine stripe patterns and of small food objects gave no evidence of reduced epicritic visual capacities. results ar ... | 1980 | 7365001 |

| robotic vertical jumping agility via series-elastic power modulation. | several arboreal mammals have the ability to rapidly and repeatedly jump vertical distances of 2 m, starting from rest. we characterize this performance by a metric we call vertical jumping agility. through basic kinetic relations, we show that this agility metric is fundamentally constrained by available actuator power. although rapid high jumping is an important performance characteristic, the ability to control forces during stance also appears critical for sophisticated behaviors. the animal ... | 2016 | 33157854 |
| preliminary observations on the role of acacia gum chemistry in acacia utilization by galago senegalensis in kenya. | a census and preliminary observations on the ranging and feeding behavior of galago senegalensis were made in a savannah-woodland site in kenya. population densities in three slightly different habitats were all approximately 1.5 animals/ha. ranging patterns suggested the existence of territorial behavior. the diet of the galagos was exclusively insects and gums of two species of acacia. the gum of a. drepanolobium appeared to be preferred to that of a. xanthophloea. the chemistry of the gums su ... | 1989 | 31968852 |
| space or novelty?: effects of altered cage size on galago behavior. | the influences of cage size and novelty on the behavior of galago senegalensis braccatus were examined in two captive groups (five adults and one immature per group) having similarly furnished but unequally sized cages. one group experienced expansion, and the other experienced contraction of space. each group experienced the novelty of a new cage and return to its old cage. exploration, nonsocial activity, and social sniffing behaviors were most frequent in both groups during the novelty phase ... | 1986 | 31979495 |
| isolation of females prior to parturition reduces neonatal mortality in galago. | eighteen years of birth records for three species of galago at the duke university primate center were examined to determine the effects of isolation of pregnant females on neonatal mortality rates. isolation significantly decreased neonatal mortality rates in all three species over neonatal mortality rates in infants born to unisolated females. the frequency of cannibalism of infants did not differ between isolated and unisolated females. secondary sex ratio differed significantly from 1:1 for ... | 1986 | 31979479 |
| northern lesser galagos (galago senegalensis) increase the production of loud calls before and at dawn. | functional explanations for loud calling in nocturnal primates include territorial or sexual advertisement, maintenance of cohesiveness, and group coordination. it is generally accepted that loud calls of lesser galagos (genus galago) are used for territorial advertisement and long-distance spacing. field studies suggest that they are uttered at dusk and dawn, when the animals leave and reunite at their sleeping sites. however, empirical validation of these inferences is lacking. we conducted 16 ... | 2020 | 31903513 |
| low geographic and subspecific variation in the loud call of the widespread and phenotypically cryptic northern lesser galago (galago senegalensis) suggests taxonomic uniformity. | like other nocturnal primates, many species of galago (galagidae) are phenotypically cryptic, making their taxonomic status difficult to resolve. recent taxonomic work has disentangled some of the confusion. this has resulted in an increase in the number of recognised galago species. the most widespread galago species, and indeed the most widespread nocturnal primate, is the northern lesser galago (galago senegalensis) whose geographic range stretches >7,000 km across africa. based on morphology ... | 2019 | 31416079 |
| fiber type composition of epaxial muscles is geared toward facilitating rapid spinal extension in the leaper galago senegalensis. | we hypothesized that the vertical leaper galago senegalensis will have epaxial extensor muscles with a fast fiber phenotype to facilitate rapid spinal extension during leaping in comparison to the slow-moving quadruped nycticebus coucang. to test this, we determined the percentage of fiber cross-sectional area (%csa) devoted to type 2 fibers in epaxial muscles of g. senegalensis compared to those of n. coucang. | 2018 | 29318571 |
