Sex-mediated gene flow in grayfoot chacma baboons (Papio ursinus griseipes) in ...
Silva, Maria Joana Ferreira da; Tralma, Paula; Colmonero-Costeira, Ivo; Cravo-Mota, Mariana; Farassi, Rassina; Hammond, Philippa; Lewis-Bevan, LynnDispersal behavior influences gene flow and the spatial distribution of genetic diversity, which is crucial for a species' evolutionary trajectory and population persistence under environmental changes. We used gene flow as a proxy to investigate dispersal patterns in the grayfoot chacma baboon (Papio ursinus griseipes) in Gorongosa National Park (GNP), central Mozambique. The baboons inhabit a mosaic landscape...
Improving Information on Over-looked Generalists: Occurrence and Mitochondrial ...
Colmonero-Costeira, Ivo; Djaló, Saidil Lamine; Nelson, Fernandes; Borges, Filipa; Aleixo-Pais, Isa G.; Gerini, Federica; Costa, Mafalda; Minhós, TâniaNon-threatened primates are often overlooked in conservation efforts despite their increasing vulnerability to local extirpation. Campbell’s (Cercopithecus campbelli) and green monkeys (Chlorocebus sabaeus) are sympatric medium-sized West African guenons (tribe Cercopithecini) whose intraspecific genetic diversity remains understudied in most of their distribution. Both species are ecological generalists and ar...
Insights into the Geographical Origins of the Cabo Verde Green Monkey
Almeida, Lara; Colmonero-Costeira, Ivo; Silva, Maria J Ferreira da; Veracini, Cecilia; Vasconcelos, Raquel Campos Soares deThe green monkey Chlorocebus sabaeus, L. 1766, native to West Africa, was introduced to the Cabo Verde Archipelago in the 16th century. Historical sources suggest that, due to the importance of Cabo Verde as a commercial entrepôt in the Atlantic slave trade, establishing the precise place of origin of this introduced species is challenging. Non-invasive fecal samples were collected from feral and captive green ...
Confirmação da ocorrência de primatas não-humanos no Arquipélago dos Bijagós co...
Colmonero-Costeira, Ivo; Minhós, Tânia; Djaló, Baba; Fernandes, Nelson; Silva, Maria Joana Ferreira daEstimar a área de ocorrência geográfica de primatas não-humanos é fulcral para a sua conservação. O uso de técnicas não-invasivas de identificação molecular permite confirmar a presença de espécies de difícil observação direta e/ou raras. O macaco verde (Chlorocebus sabaeus), o macaco mona (Cercopithecus campbelli) e o macaco petaurista (Cercopithecus petaurista buettikoferi) são espécies de primatas que ocorre...
