Plant species fed on by wild ring-tailed lemurs (Lemur catta) at nine sites

A key aspect of a primate’s ecology is its food source – the very nature of which is spatially and seasonally dependent, and may be affected by anthropic pressures. One of the most endangered, yet best-studied, strepsirrhine primates is the ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) – a species that has experienced significant human-induced habitat loss over many decades. To help understand feeding variability across time and space, I present a literature review of plant species (and parts) fed on by ring-tailed lemurs at nine sites in Madagascar: Ambatotsirongorongo, Andringitra Massif, Anja Reserve, Antserananomby, Berenty Reserve, Bezà Mahafaly Special Reserve, Cap Sainte-Marie, Tsaranoro Valley Forest, and Tsimanampetsotsa National Park. I gathered literature using keyword searches on Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com/), and verified scientific names using the “Catalogue of the Plants of Madagascar” (http://legacy.tropicos.org/Project/Madagascar). From 24 studies, I identify 221 gener...灵长类动物生态学的核心维度之一是其食物来源——该来源的属性兼具空间与季节依赖性，且可能受到人为活动压力的影响。环尾狐猴（Lemur catta）是最濒危且研究最为深入的原猴亚目（strepsirrhine）灵长类之一，数十年来其栖息地因人类活动遭到了严重破坏。为阐明不同时空尺度下的摄食变异性，本文对马达加斯加9个调查点位的环尾狐猴取食植物物种（及取食部位）的相关文献进行了综述：这9个点位分别为安巴托齐龙戈龙戈（Ambatotsirongorongo）、昂德里特拉地块（Andringitra Massif）、安贾保护区（Anja Reserve）、安塞拉纳南比（Antserananomby）、贝伦蒂保护区（Berenty Reserve）、贝扎马哈法利特别保护区（Bezà Mahafaly Special Reserve）、圣玛丽角（Cap Sainte-Marie）、查拉诺罗谷森林（Tsaranoro Valley Forest）以及齐马南佩楚阿国家公园（Tsimanampetsotsa National Park）。本文通过谷歌学术（Google Scholar，https://scholar.google.com/）开展关键词检索以收集相关文献，并借助《马达加斯加植物名录》（Catalogue of the Plants of Madagascar，http://legacy.tropicos.org/Project/Madagascar）核实植物学名。基于24项研究，本文共识别出221个……
