TL;DR: The Albertine Rift is one of the most important regions for conservation in Africa as discussed by the authors, containing more vertebrate species than any other region on the continent and contains more endemic species of vertebrate than any region on mainland Africa.

TL;DR: This work places this monkey in Lophocebus, because it possesses noncontrasting black eyelids and is arboreal, and places it in L. kipunji, a new species of mangabey found at two sites 370 kilometers apart in southern Tanzania.

TL;DR: Detailed molecular phylogenetic analyses of this specimen demonstrate that the genus Lophocebus is diphyletic, and provide a description of a new genus of African monkey and of the only preserved specimen of this primate.

TL;DR: Uganda is one of the most biologically diverse countries in Africa, with much of its biodiversity represented in a system of 10 national parks, 10 wildlife reserves, and 710 forest reserves, covering 33,000 km2 of the country's area, and the role of the forest reserves in biodiversity conservation is focused on.

TL;DR: It is found that the long-term presence of conservation activities (such as law enforcement, research and tourism) was associated with lower threat impact levels and management effectiveness of several PAs across tropical Africa, and it is concluded that PA management should invest more into conservation activities with long- term duration.
