	Propithecus diadema edwardsi
		Propithecus diadema edwardsi is one of the largest lemurs in Madagascar (and the largest lemur at RNP).
		Propithecus diadema edwardsi is found in the rainforests of the south east coast of Madagascar.

		The Propithecus (Sifaka in Malagasy) are some of the most advanced lemurs in Madagascar.
		As the species of Propithecus are particularly connected to the primary forest, most of them are now endangered : a breeding project is vital for their survival.

		Although copious data are available on the mechanics of bipedal locomotion in hominoids and vertical clinging and leaping (VCL) in indrids, no research has addressed the unique mode of bipedal locomotion exhibited by select indrid primates.
		Propithecus verreauxi is a highly specialized indrid vertical clinger and leaper that uses a peculiar form of bipedalism on the ground.
		Propithecus uses a bipedal gallop, a unique occurrence of this form of locomotion among mammals.

		This research was carried out in the forest of Kirindy, in the western region of Madagascar, from March 1995 through March 1998.
		It is the first study on Propithecus verreauxi verreauxi (A. Grandidier, 1867; Indriidae) in this area.
		The forest of Kirindy is a primary dry deciduous forest characterised by two well-defined seasons, a dry and a rainy one.

	Dr. Mitchell Irwin - Study species: Propethicus diadema
		Sifakas (family Indriidae, genus Propithecus) are a group of lemurs found only in Madagascar and distributed throughout the island except for the high plateau.
		In 1999, a previously unknown local variant of Propithecus diadema (known as “sadabe”) was discovered at Tsinjoarivo by S. Goodman, H. Schütz and a Duke University capture expedition led by Ken Glander.
		Tsinjoarivo sifakas are provisionally referred to Propithecus diadema, though certain morphological differences suggest they may be distinct.

		In addition to the diademed sifaka (Propithecus diadema diadema) the other three subspecies include Milne-Edward's sifaka (Propithecus diadema edwardsi), the Silky sifaka (Propithecus diadema candidus), and Perrier's sifaka (Propithecus diadema perrieri).
		Together with the Indri (Indri indri), with which it is sympatric, Propithecus diadema diadema is the largest of the living lemurs.
		The Duke Lemur Center houses representatives of each of the three species: the Coquerel's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi coquereli -- a subspecies of Propithecus verreauxi), the golden-crowned sifaka (Propithecus tattersalli), and the diademed sifaka (Propithecus diadema diadema -- a subspecies of Propithecus diadema).

		The species is currently thought to be composed of 4 distinct subspecies, each of which is very different in appearance.
		The diademed sifaka (Propithecus diadema diadema) from which the species name is derived is one of the most attractive and largest of the sifakas.
		The coat is white on the head with a dark crown; the rest of the body varies in shades of grey except for the rich golden-orange of the arms and legs, and the hands, feet and face, which are fl.

		I am currently working on analyzing the plantar foot pressures of Propithecus verreauxi, an indrid primate, during bipedal locomotion.
		Investigation of this topic will help us to understand why this primate is one of the few to predominately travel bipedally when on a terrestrial substrait.
