Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Inglés. Esta guía describe e ilustra las especies y subespecies de primates de América del Sur, América Central y México. Esta región tiene el mayor número de taxones de primates en comparación con cualquier otra región importante en la que se encuentran primates, con un total de 217 especies y subespecies en 24 géneros y cinco familias. Con un formato fácil de usar y muy práctico para el campo, este nuevo libro permite a los visitantes ver de un vistazo qué especies están presentes en los 21 países de la región neotropical que tienen poblaciones silvestres de primates, y ofrece indicaciones que ayudarán en su identificación. La guía abarca todas las especies y subespecies de primates que se encuentran de manera natural en los Neotrópicos, así como tres especies africanas que han sido introducidas y que ahora son asilvestradas en algunas islas del Caribe, incluyendo Barbados, San Cristóbal y Nieves, Santa Lucía, Granada, Saint-Martin/Sint Maarten y Anguila. Los textos para cada especie incluyen nombres científicos, nombres comunes en inglés, nombres adicionales en portugués y español, así como en francés para las especies presentes en la Guayana Francesa y en sranan tongo para aquellas en Surinam. También se incluye el estado de conservación según la Lista Roja de Especies Amenazadas de la UICN, los detalles más relevantes sobre hábitats y distribución geográfica, breves notas descriptivas y, cuando está disponible, el rango altitudinal. Cada ficha de especie va acompañada de una o más ilustraciones y un mapa de distribución. Para estimular la observación de primates y la creación de listas de vida de primates, se proporciona una lista de verificación completa con los nombres comunes y los países donde se encuentran las diferentes especies, para que puedas marcar los primates que has visto en tu propia lista de vida. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. .cette etude qualitative (des equations difj'erentielles) aura par elle-m me un inter t du premier ordre .HENRI POINCARE, 1881. We present in this book a view of the Geometric Theory of Dynamical Systems, which is introductory and yet gives the reader an understanding of some of the basic ideas involved in two important topics: structural stability and genericity. This theory has been considered by many mathematicians starting with Poincare, Liapunov and Birkhoff. In recent years some of its general aims were established and it experienced considerable development. More than two decades passed between two important events: the work of Andronov and Pontryagin (1937) introducing the basic concept of structural stability and the articles of Peixoto (1958-1962) proving the density of stable vector fields on surfaces. It was then that Smale enriched the theory substantially by defining as a main objective the search for generic and stable properties and by obtaining results and proposing problems of great relevance in this context. In this same period Hartman and Grobman showed that local stability is a generic property.Soon after this Kupka and Smale successfully attacked the problem for periodic orbits. We intend to give the reader the flavour of this theory by means of many examples and by the systematic proof of the Hartman-Grobman and the Stable Manifold Theorems (Chapter 2), the Kupka-Smale Theorem (Chapter 3) and Peixoto's Theorem (Chapter 4). Several ofthe proofs we give vii Introduction Vlll are simpler than the original ones and are open to important generalizations. Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1982.…

This guide describes and illustrates the species and subspecies of the primates of South America, Central America and Mexico. This region has the largest number of primate taxa of any of the major regions in which primates occur, a total of 217 species and subspecies in 24 genera and five families. With an easy-to-use format that is very handy for the field, this new book enables visitors to see at a glance which species are present in the 21 countries of the Neotropical region that have wild primate populations, and it gives pointers that will help in their identification. Neotropical Primates covers all the primate species and subspecies that occur naturally in the Neotropics and three African species that have been introduced and are now feral on some of the Caribbean islands, including Barbados, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, Grenada, Saint-Martin/Sint Maarten and Anguilla. Texts for each species include scientific names, common names in English, additional names in Portuguese and Spanish, as well as French for species occurring in French Guiana and Sranan Tongo for those in Suriname, conservation status according to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, the most relevant details about habitats and geographic distribution, brief descriptive notes, and, when available, altitudinal range. Each species account is accompanied by one or more illustrations and a distribution map. To stimulate primate-watching and primate life-listing, a complete checklist is provided with the common names and countries where the different species occur for you to mark the primates you have seen for your own personal life list.
