Effects of Habitat Quality and Hunting Pressure on Arboreal Folivore Densities in Neotropical Forests: A Case Study of Howler Monkeys (Alouatta spp.) (original) (raw)

Folia Primatologica, 1997

Abstract

This large-scale geographic comparison examines the effects of subsistence hunting pressure and several indirect indicators of habitat quality on the abundance of howler monkeys {Alouatta spp.), the best studied and the most folivorous of all platyrrhine primates. Alouatta population densities were obtained from a standardized series of line-transect censuses undertaken at 23 Amazonian forest sites (1987–1995), including annually flooded (várzea),
