Non-invasive conservation genetics of the critically endangered golden-crowned sifaka (Propithecus tattersalli): high diversity and significant genetic differentiation over a small range

2010-06-01

Abstract excerpt

The genetic structure of the golden-crowned sifaka (Propithecus tattersalli) was evaluated in three forest types in the Daraina region between the Loky and Manambato Rivers in northeastern Madagascar. This critically endangered lemur species, only found within this restricted region (~1,300 km²), comprises populations which survive in forest fragments of varying size. While this remote region is already affected b...
