Based on field studies spanning nearly 40 years, this reference book summarizes and integrates past research with new and previously unpublished information on the behavioral ecology of Africa''s red colobus monkeys from study sites as diverse as Senegal, Uganda and Zanzibar. It provides anunparalleled compilation of information on taxonomy, genetics, vocalizations, demography, social organization, dispersal, social behavior, reproduction, mortality factors, diet, ranging patterns, interspecific relations, and conservation. Social relationships in red colobus are less rigidlystructured than in other African monkeys, resulting in considerable variation in social organization and group composition, both within and between taxa. This provides a unique opportunity to examine the extent to which social variables correlate with differences in habitat quality, demography, andpredation by chimpanzees and humans. Unfortunately, at least half of the 18 taxa of red colobus are now threatened with extinction. Conservation problems are described, causal factors identified, and solutions proposed. This volume is intended not only to serve as a reference book, but to stimulateand guide future long-term research and to encourage effective conservation action. | The Red Colobus Monkeys by Thomas T.

[ED: Hardcover], [PU: OXFORD UNIV PR], Red colobus monkeys are very unusual in many aspects of their biology, not just among primates but also among mammals. This thorough and current review of their biology takes full account of the latest theory in optimal foraging, sexual selection, social organization, biogeography, and conservation biology.
