▪ Abstract In this review, we discuss the ecological and evolutionary consequences of plant-
herbivore interactions in tropical forests. We note first that herbivory rates are higher in …

Available information on the consumption of wild meat in West and Central Africa is
reviewed. We show that mammals are the prime source of bushmeat, and that ungulates …

Data are presented on adult body mass for 230 of 249 primate species, based on a review of

The book summarizes 20 years of research on the impact of selective logging in the Kibale
forest in Uganda, which is one of the most important centres for the study of tropical rain …

Our knowledge of the ecology of tropical rain-forest trees is limited, with detailed information
available for perhaps only a few hundred of the many thousand of species that occur. Yet a …

Based on field studies spanning nearly 40 years, this reference book summarizes and
integrates past research with new and previously unpublished information on the behavioral …

I examined influence of body size and mating systems on sexual-size dimorphism by
summarizing characteristics and testing for associations among the most dimorphic …

In this article we use new data to review the major threats facing primate populations and
assess probable declines and local extinctions. Subsequently, we outline some of the …

Entomophagy is widespread among nonhuman primates and is common among many
human communities. However, the extent and patterns of entomophagy vary substantially …
