{"product_id":"colobine-monkeys-glyn-ed-davies-9780521331531","title":"Colobine Monkeys: Their Ecology, Behaviour and Evolution","description":"Colobine monkeys have a unique digestive system that allows them to exploit foliage as a food source. This gives them a niche in Old World forests where they are often the only abundant medium-sized arboreal folivorous mammal. From a possible Miocene origin, colobine monkeys have radiated into a wide variety of forms inhabiting a range of tropical woodlands in Africa and Asia. The central theme of this work is adaptive radiation, showing how the special features of colobine anatomy interacted with a range of ecosystems to produce the distinctive species of today. Most of the extant species have been subject to long-term field studies, but until this book, no synthesis of work on this group has been available. The book discusses parallels with other mammalian groups.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Glyn Ed Davies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521331536\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521331531\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.13d","brand":"Glyn Ed Davies","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47202149073151,"sku":"9780521331531","price":121.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5026165e-07f8-4cd6-abf5-fe445c790fc8.jpg?v=1756819774","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/colobine-monkeys-glyn-ed-davies-9780521331531","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
