Thesis (Ph.D.)--Washington University, 1992.

Patterns of interspecific variation within the Genus Macaca (Cercopithecidae, Primates) are identified for a number of different ecological and behavioral variables. A conservative amount of variation is seen in the diet, group size, group composition, and general aspects of social behavior of different species. Greater interspecific variation is exhibited in the morphology, geographic distribution, habitat selection, activity patterns, ranging behavior, and reproductive strategies. Although a great deal of research has been conducted on the ecology and behavior of a number of species, rigorous documentation of the range of variation in the ecological strategies of this genus as a whole has not yet been attempted.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation presents a summary of the ecology of twenty species of Macaca. It is based on an investigation of the literature on wild, free-ranging, and captive populations. Available data indicate that different patterns in the ecological strategies of macaques are related to variations in the tolerance of species to habitat disturbance. The adaptability of species to habitat change is related to their evolutionary history, adjustments to past and present changes in habitat, and behavioral plasticity. Species of macaques can be grouped as ecologically fragile, intermediate, or robust according to similarities in their distribution, habitat selection, tolerance to habitat change, and ranging behavior. These categories of behavioral adaptability crosscut phylogenetic relationships.
