A group of woolly monkeys (Lagothrix lagothricha), studied for 1,800 hr from June 1984 until September 1987 in the eastern Colombian Amazon, used a home range of about 760 ha, 90% of which overlapped the ranges of three other groups. Home range use varied throughout the year, correlating in part wit

β¦ Synopsis
Q and G banding studies of the chromosomes of a specimen of Lagothrix lagothricha cana permitted identification of a// pairs in the complement. The X is a medium-sized submetacentric, the Y a very small acrocentric. Some chromosome pairs show banding patterns identical to those found in some chromosomes of Cebus apella, C. albifrons and Saimin sciureus.
To our knowledge, no banding studies have been published so far in any of these subspecies.
In this paper, we described the Q and G banding patterns of a specimen of Lagothrix lagothricha cana (2n = 62).

The karyotype of Erythrocebus patas was studied using G, Q and C bands and NOR staining and compared to those of Miopithecus talapoin, Macaca mulatta and Cercopithecus aethiops. The comparison shows a large number of homoeologies, but several chromosome pairs cannot be matched. The mechanisms that m
