| The Mongoose Lemur is not a mongoose at all, but a prosimian primate, a species of monkey and native only to Madagascar. |
|
| The three analyses showed the same dichotomy with the prosimian sequences always separated from all the other primate sequences. |
|
| By pinpointing which cognitive abilities all primates share, including prosimian primates, we hope to determine what aspects of intelligence are general primate adaptations. |
|
| But despite being the subject of numerous now-obscure nineteenth-century reports, this small, nocturnal, gremlin-like prosimian long went unexamined by primatologists. |
|
| The pattern of peripheral nerve inputs into the dorsal column nuclei, cuneate and gracile, was investigated in the prosimian Galago garnetti. |
|
| Established in 1966, today the center ranks as the world's largest sanctuary for rare and endangered prosimian primates. |
|
| Conducts research on prosimian biology, conservation needs and primate evolution. |
|
| Tree shrews have been classified as prosimian or insectivorous on the basis of their similarity or dissimilarity to primates. |
|
| The present experiment reports sex-specific decreases in food intake in a prosimian primate, Garnett's bushbaby, following oral administration of l-tryptophan. |
|
| They engage in sunbathing during which they sit on their haunches, arms uplifted prayerfully, eyes glazed over in prosimian pleasure, and soak in the rays. |
|
| Those that remained, a few tarsiers, lorises and lemurs, could be viewed as a somewhat unprogressive lot, relative to the heyday of prosimian radiations. |
|
| Prosimian primates still have toilet-claws nowadays, while the nails of a few South American monkey species have reversed back to claws. |
|
| A stalwart of the Prosimian Taxon Advisory Group, Derek met 30 delegates from across Europe and Madagascar at the Bristol Zoo event. |
