Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Furry and wide-eyed, lorises and pottos are small, nocturnal primates inhabiting African, Asian and Southeast Asian tropical and subtropical forests. Their likeable appearance, combined with their unusual adaptations - from a marked reduction of the tail to their mostly slow, deliberate locomotion, powerful grasping and, in some species, a venomous bite - has led to a significant rise in research interest in the family Lorisidae over the last decade. Furthermore, lorises in particular have featured frequently in international media largely due to illegal trade, for example as pets. This is the first volume to present a full picture of the breadth of research being undertaken on lorisids to aid future studies as well as conservation efforts. Focusing on five key topics: evolutionary biology, ecomorphology, behavioural ecology, captive management and conservation, this book is a vital read for graduate students and researchers in primatology, biological anthropology, evolutionary biology, animal behaviour and conservation. This book introduces students and researchers to the morphology, anatomy, taxonomy, ecology and conservation of lorisid primates, a group more well-known from videos on social media than their behaviour in the wild and by their unique evolutionary adaptations. A must-have on any primatology, biological anthropology or conservation reading list. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
