English version: Karen Strier, 1999. Harvard University Press. 170 pp. ISBN: 978-0674290082. The woolly spider monkey, or muriqui, is one of the most threatened primate species in the world. Because of deforestation in their natural habitat (the Atlantic coastal forests of southeastern Brazil) the muriquis are confined to less than three percent of their original range. As of 1987, there were only a dozen forest fragments known to support a total muriqui population of about 500. As of 1998, at least 20 forests are known to support at least 1000 muriquis. This book traces the natural history of the muriqui from its scientific discovery in 1806 to its current, highly endangered status. Karen Strier provides a case study of this scientifically important primate species by balancing field research and ecological issues. Through her accessible presentation, readers gain a broad understanding of primate behavior and tropical conservation.

Life in the Cerrado, a South American Tropical Seasonal Ecosystem, by Gerhard Gottsberger and I. Silberbauer-Gottsberger. 2005. The book describes the Cerrado (one of the top biodiversity hotspots in the world), a large scale South American ecosystem, its formation and origin, its plants and their adaptations, their rhythms of life, and their interactions with animals. The Central Brazilian Cerrado should be considered as a distinct vegetation type, distinguished from other topographically similar Central and South American vegetation types by its ecology, species composition and floristic diversity. Cerrado occurs frequently in savanna-like forms, but also as forest (closed arboreal canopy), woodland (open arboreal canopy), scrub and open grassland forms. Floristic similarities of Cerrado and Central and South American savannas and savanna-like vegetation are the result of a common origin of all these vegetation types and also testify to the floristic exchange between Neotropical savannas and Cerrado during the Tertiary and Quaternary. In the first volume is a detailed examination of its vegetation, its structure, dynamics and presumed origin. Emphasis is on the adaptational features of plants in relation to their physical environment, in particular climate, soil conditions and fire. Further, the utility to humans of Cerrado plants is discussed, as well as the influence of humans upon this ecosystem. We also discuss some of the issues associated with conservation politics. In the second volume, pollination and seed dispersal phenomena are described, and emphasis is placed on how these processes, essentially plant-animal relationships, are critical to the maintenance and regeneration of this ecosystem. Contents: Vol. 1. Origin, Structure, Dynamics and Plant Use; Vol. 2. Pollination and Seed Dispersal.

The Mammals of Costa Rica: A Natural History and Field Guide, by Mark Wainwright and Oscar Arias. 2007. Cornell University Press. ISBN: 978-0801473753. From the raucous mantled howler monkeys and the charismatic white-nosed coatis to the elusive jaguar, The Mammals of Costa Rica offers authoritative accounts of the fascinating creatures of the Neotropics. With more than four hundred spectacular illustrations and a wealth of detailed information drawn from firsthand observation, new research, and synthesis of the scientific literature, this book describes all of Costa Rica's readily identifiable terrestrial and freshwater mammals. The clear and entertaining text is perfectly suited to meet the needs of naturalists, students, and researchers, as well as both experienced and first-time visitors to Costa Rica and the American tropics. The mammal descriptions include key identification features, range maps, vocalizations, local folklore and mythology, and comprehensive information about natural history and conservation. The color illustrations show not only the mammals themselves but also their tracks, foods, and skulls. Also included are illustrations of numerous other animals and plants with which the mammals have close ecological links. By presenting mammals in a broader context, The Mammals of Costa Rica provides an entry point into a general study of tropical ecology and conservation.

Feeding Ecology in Apes and Other Primates. Ecological, Physiological and Behavioural Aspects, edited by G. Hohmann, M. M. Robbins and C. Boesch. 2006. Cambridge University Press. 540 pp. ISBN: 978-0521858373. The book focuses on evolutionary perspectives of the complex interactions between the environment, food sources, physiology and behaviour in primates. This highly interdisciplinary volume provides a benchmark to assess dietary alterations that affected human evolution by putting the focus on the diet of hominid primates. It also offers a new perspective on the behavioural ecology of the last common ancestor by integrating corresponding information from both human and non-human primates. The potential of innovations of applied biotechnology are also explored to set new standards for future research on feeding ecology, and new information on feeding ecology in humans, apes and other primates is synthesized to help refine or modify current models of socioecology. By taking a comparative view, this book will be interesting to primatologists, anthropologists, behavioural ecologists and evolutionary biologists who want to understand better non-human primates, and the primate that is us.
