Journal ArticleDOI
Home range estimates vary with sample size and methods.
TL;DR: Comparing home range estimates of northern bearded saki monkeys living in forest fragments and continuous forest in the Brazilian Amazon area shows MCP was more accurate than AK and FK in calculating home and day range when sample size was small, and AK overestimated range most frequently.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary seed dispersal by three Neotropical seed-predating primates (Cacajao melanocephalus ouakary, Chiropotes chiropotes and Chiropotes albinasus)

TL;DR: Although they are highly specialized seed predators, these primates may also act as important dispersers for some plant species, and effective dispersal is not restricted to ripe fruits, as immature fruits removed from a tree may continue to mature and the seeds later germinate, a much-neglected aspect of dispersal ecology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Travel and Spatial Patterns Change When Chiropotes satanas chiropotes Inhabit Forest Fragments
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how travel and spatial patterns differ among groups living in forest fragments of 3 size classes (1 ha, 10 ha, and 100 ha) versus continuous forest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial Ecology of Reddish-Brown Cuxiú Monkeys (Chiropotes sagulatus, Pitheciidae) in an Isolated Forest Remnant: Movement Patterns and Edge Effects
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors studied the movement ecology of a group of reddish-brown cuxiú monkeys (Chiropotes sagulatus, Pitheciidae) in a small (13 ha), isolated forest remnant that was <3% of the species' typical home range in the region.
