- Title
Acoustic structure of male loud-calls support molecular phylogeny of Sumatran and Javanese leaf monkeys (genus Presbytis).
- Abstract
The article discuses how acoustic structure of male loud-calls support molecular phylogeny of Sumatran and Javanese leaf monkeys. Research is based on a field survey in 19 locations on Sumatra, Java and the Mentawai islands. The acoustic analysis of 100 surili male loud-calls from 68 wild animals confirms that the acoustic structure of surili loud-calls is a reliable tool to distinguish between species and to verify phylogenetic relatedness and migration backgrounds of respective taxa.
