Hair phenotype diversity across Indriidae lemurs

2021-10-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> Hair (i.e., pelage/fur) is a salient feature of primate (including human) diversity and evolution— serving functions tied to thermoregulation, protection, camouflage, and signaling—but wild primate pelage evolution remains relatively understudied. Specifically, assessing multiple hypotheses across distinct phylogenetic scales is essential but is rarely conducted. We examine whole body hair col...
