Item Description

West Africa is home to 60 primate species and subspecies, 46 of which occur nowhere else. This comprehensive field guide by John F. Oates includes accounts for each primate species and subspecies, with information not only on their identifying features and geographic distributions, but also on their natural history - their populations and habitats, locomotion, vocalizations, activity patterns, diets and feeding, ranging, and social behaviors. The guide is richly illustrated with full-color plates, distribution maps for every species and subspecies, and more than 140 color photographs of the primates and their habitats. An appendix describes key sites where these primates can be seen in the wild. Paperback, 7.4 x 4.5 x 1 inches, 556 pages.
