The dwarf and mouse lemurs of Madagascar are two very species-rich
lemur genera, yet there is a relative paucity of information on
this primate family in published literature. In this first ever
treatment of the Cheirogaleidae, international experts are brought
together to review and integrate our current knowledge of the
behaviour, physiology, ecology, genetics and biogeography of these
species. A wide range of direct and indirect research methods that
are currently used to study these cryptic nocturnal solitary
foragers are described. By uniting often disparate research on
captive and free-ranging taxa and synthesising recent
methodological advances, this book provides new insights that will
encourage further studies of this fascinating primate family. This
synthesis will provide an incentive for more integrative studies of
the Cheirogaleidae in captivity and in the wild, enabling the
impacts of deforestation and other factors to be identified and
directions for future conservation efforts to be established.
