| reciprocal painting between humans, de brazza's and patas monkeys reveals a major bifurcation in the cercopithecini phylogenetic tree. | we report on reciprocal painting between humans and two cercopithecini species, erythrocebus patas (patas monkey) and cercopithecus neglectus (de brazza's monkey). both human and monkeys chromosome-specific probes were made by degenerate oligonucleotide primed pcr (dop-pcr) from flow sorted chromosomes. metaphases of both monkey species were first hybridized with human chromosome-specific probes and then human metaphases were hybridized with chromosome paints from each monkey species. the human ... | 2005 | 15545727 |
| [cytogenetic study of cercopithecus wolfi, cercopithecus erythrotis and a hybrid cercopithecus ascanius x cercopithecus pogonias grayi]. | the karyotypes of two species of cercopithecus, c. wolfi and c. erythrotis, as well as that of a hybrid c. ascanius x c. pogonias grayi, are described and compared. the karyotype of c. erythrotis is similar to that of c. ascanius and c. cephus described previously. the karyotypes of c. wolfi and c. p. grayi differ by a single inversion. the karyotype of the hybrid shows that the two parental species differ by five rearrangements, three fissions and two inversions, an observation in agreement wit ... | 1985 | 3876066 |
| examining deep litter as environmental enrichment for a family group of wolf's guenons, cercopithecus wolfi. | manipulable substrates promote species-typical behavior and decrease abnormal behavior in a variety of primate species. however, the effects of providing litter to arboreal primates are not as well studied, and there is little information specifically concerning enrichment for guenons. to inform the captive management of an under-studied species, we evaluated deep litter substrate as environmental enrichment for a family group of wolf's guenons, cercopithecus wolfi. we expected it to promote spe ... | 2011 | 19816906 |
| census, habitat preference, and polyspecific associations of six monkeys in the lomako forest, zaire. | this paper reports preliminary data on a number of poorly known cercopithecids inhabiting the lomako forest, zaire. data include those on density, biomass, group size, the relationship between group type (mono vs. polyspecific) and forest type (mixed primary, secondary, monodominant primary, and swamp), and vertical stratification. species examined are colobus angolensis, cercocebus aterrimus, cercopithecus wolfi, cercopithecus ascanius, cercopithecus neglectus, and allenopithecus nigroviridis. ... | 1994 | 31936961 |
