TL;DR: These findings suggest that tropical protected areas are often intimately linked ecologically to their surrounding habitats, and that a failure to stem broad-scale loss and degradation of such habitats could sharply increase the likelihood of serious biodiversity declines.

TL;DR: A hypothesis that predicts when male primates are expected to defend resources for females in their group is presented, which suggests direct male mate defense may occur in almost all primate species, while female resource defense appears to be most common in species with high levels of female philopatry.

TL;DR: Line‐transect surveys were conducted at the Isecheno study site in the Kakamega Forest, western Kenya to estimate diurnal primate densities, finding a strong positive correlation between total colobine biomass and total primate biomass at the ten Guineo‐Congolian rainforest sites.

TL;DR: Investigation of the activity patterns of 2 groups and the ranging patterns of 5 groups of eastern black-and-white colobus (Colobus guereza), aka guerezas, in the Kakamega Forest, Kenya suggests that intragroup scramble competition may have been rare or absent among guezas at KakameGA except perhaps in the largest group, which was unusually large.

TL;DR: It is concluded that conservation measures applied to central Isecheno appear to have succeeded, but that the prognosis for the Kakamega Forest in general is bleak if protection efforts are not increased in other parts of the forest, where anthropogenic disturbance remains high.
