TL;DR: It is shown that most tree species are extremely rare, meaning that they may be under serious risk of extinction at current deforestation rates, and a methodological framework for estimating species richness in trees is provided that may help refine species richness estimates of tree-dependent taxa.

Long-Term Effects of Logging on African Primate Communities: a 28-Year Comparison From Kibale National Park, Uganda
Colin A. Chapman,Colin A. Chapman,Sophia R. Balcomb,Thomas R. Gillespie,Joseph P. Skorupa,Thomas T. Struhsaker +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, surveys conducted over 28 years were used to quantify the long-term effects of both low-and high-intensity selective logging on the den- sity of the five common primates in Kibale National Park, Uganda.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primates and the Ecology of their Infectious Diseases: How will Anthropogenic Change Affect Host-Parasite Interactions?
TL;DR: A consideration of how environmental change may promote contact between humans and nonhuman primates and thus increase the possibility of sharing infectious diseases detrimental to humans or non human primates is now paramount in conservation and human health planning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do food availability, parasitism, and stress have synergistic effects on red colobus populations living in forest fragments?
Colin A. Chapman,Michael D. Wasserman,Thomas R. Gillespie,Michaela L. Speirs,Michael J. Lawes,Tania L. Saj,Toni E. Ziegler +6 more
TL;DR: A path analysis suggests that change in food availability has a strong direct effect on population size, but it also has an indirect effect via parasite infections.
