Carola Borries will talk about
Gestation length in colobine monkeys This work, in collaboration with Carrie Mongle and Andreas Koenig, explores gestation length in two primate sister taxa, the African colobines (Colobini) and the Asian colobines (Presbytini). Even though both tribes have similar adaptations to folivory and bear similarly small neonates, gestation length in Colobini has been reported to be longer than in Presbytini. With new data becoming available for species in both tribes we have now revisited this conundrum with a surprising outcome. Marcy Ekanayake-Weber leads the discussion on:
