ADW: Cercopithecus mitis: Information Cercopithecus mitis is found in rain forests of central, eastern, and southern Africa. Cercopithecus mitis is also known as the diademed monkey because it has a prominent row of forward pointing white fur just above its brow line (Rudran, 1978). Cercopithecus mitis tends to be a social species with group sizes ranging from 10 to 40 individuals. animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu /site/accounts/information/Cercopithecus_mitis.html   (1027 words)

Cercopithecus Aethiops   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Babies have a yellow band which is formed by the deep yellow coloration of the tip of the hair above the eyebrow, with the face a sallow flesh colour. The Vervet Monkey, Cercopithecus Aethiops, has a pale turquoise blue skin. Scientists confirmed during 1976 that the skin coloration was due to deep dermal deposition of melanin in melanocytes accounting for the blue coloration. www.enviro.co.za /vervet/monkey.htm   (1658 words)

STLV-I antibodies in feral populations of East African vervet monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops). STLV-I antibodies in feral populations of East African vervet monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops). Blood samples had been collected from 336 monkeys in 4 regions of central and southern Kenya in 1978 and 1979, from 114 monkeys in central Ethiopia in 1973, and from 85 monkeys from the Kampala region of Uganda in 1966. The analysis of data from infants of STLV-I+ mothers showed that seroconversion had occurred in 1 of 3 cases, suggesting that vertical transmission of the STLV-I virus is not an inevitable consequence for infants of seropositive mothers. www.aegis.com /aidsline/1987/jan/M8710060.html   (421 words)

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de Sao Paulo: A preliminary investigation on the gastrointestinal helminths ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Several studies have demonstrated that non-human primates may be carriers of human gastrointestinal parasites6, ectoparasites5 and bacteria12; so that people living in close proximity of such animals or individuals working in game parks, animal orphanages or research stations may be at risk of acquiring pathogens from infected animals. The African green monkey, Cercopithecus aethiops sabaeus reached the Caribbean from West Africa in the mid-17 century2. In their study of parasites of Cercopithecus neglectus in Kenya, KARERE & MUNENE6 noted that infections with Strongyloides were higher in female adults than in juveniles. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_qa3855/is_200307/ai_n9252854   (1362 words)

Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) from sun-tailed monkeys (Cercopithecus solatus): evidence for host-dependent evolution of SIV within the C. lhoesti superspecies. Recently we reported the characterization of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIVlhoest) from a central African l'hoest monkey (Cercopithecus lhoesti lhoesti) that revealed a distant relationship to SIV isolated from a mandrill (SIVmnd). The present report describes a novel SIV (SIVsun) isolated from a healthy, wild-caught sun-tailed monkey (Cercopithecus lhoesti solatus), another member of the l'hoest superspecies. www.aegis.com /aidsline/1999/nov/A99B0677.html   (500 words)

Structural colouration of mammalian skin: convergent evolution of coherently scattering dermal collagen arrays -- Prum ... Light micrographs of structurally coloured skin of (A) male mandrill (Mandrillus sphinx) facial skin; (B) male mandrill rump skin; (C) vervet monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops) scrotum and (D) wooly opossum (Caluromys derbianus) scrotum (epidermis detached and missing). Colour scale (from blue to red) indicates the relative magnitude of the squared Fourier components, which are dimensionless quantities. The shaded zone shows the range of spatial frequencies that are likely to produce mammal-visible coherent reflections, assuming a visible spectrum of 400–700 nm and an average refractive index in the dermis of 1.4. jeb.biologists.org /cgi/content/full/207/12/2157   (7569 words)

WPRC Library & Information Service: Books Received There is an even greater variety of controversial subspecies within Cercopithecus, Miopithecus, Allenopithecus, Erythrocebus, and Chlorocebus, the viability of the last four genera themselves being open to debate. Any authors who have deviated from this taxonomy have explained their reasons in their respective chapters and generation. There is no clear precedent or distinct historical root for the usage of "guenon." Our usage of the term is meant to provide a simple manner in which to refer to this group of closely related species and genera. library.primate.wisc.edu /collections/books/guenon.html   (1447 words)

7th Conference - Abstract 223   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Since DeBrazza and Sykes’ monkeys are both members of the genus Cercopithecus, these data suggested that their virus had evolved in a host-dependent fashion. These studies revealed that the lhoesti group of monkeys (L’hoest’s, Preuss’s and Sun-tailed monkeys) formed a lineage roughly equidistant from other Cercopithecus and Chlorocebus species, thus providing an explanation for the independent phylogenetic position of their viruses. We have recently characterized SIVs from Blue (Cercopithecus mitis) and mona (Cercopithecus mona) monkeys, and partial sequence analyses are consistent with this hypothesis. www.retroconference.org /2000/abstracts/223.htm   (281 words)

San Diego Zoo's Animal Bytes: Guenon San Diego Zoo: Schmidt’s Cercopithecus ascanius schmidti, lesser spot-nosed Cercopithecus petaurista, Wolf’s Cercopithecus wolfi, and L’Hoest’s Cercopithecus lhoesti guenons live in Monkey Trails and Forest Tales; Schmidt's guenons also live in Ituri Forest. Known to scientists as Cercopithecus ascanius schmidti, this guenon is known by several common names: red-tailed monkey, white spot-nosed monkey, and Schmidt's spot-nosed guenon. This colorful species of monkey has nothing to do with a wolf: it was named after the last name of the person who first described it for science. www.sandiegozoo.org /animalbytes/t-guenon.html   (1115 words)
