• Behavioral Ecology of Sympatric Chimpanzees and Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda: Diet (2003, background): “Montane chimpanzees in Kahuzi-Biega National Park, Democratic Republic of Congo, hunt for Cercopithecus mitis and duiker antelope (Basabose and Yamagiwa, 1997).”
• Diet and Food Choice of Trachypithecus francoisi in the Nonggang Nature Reserve, China (2006, background): “Franc ¸ois’ langurs in the Nonggang Nature Reserve, like other folivorous primates (Chapman, 1988; Yamagiwa et al., 1994 ), varied the consumption of different food items according to season.”
• Home Range and Frugivory Patterns of Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda (2003, background): “Day journey length might increase when fruit is being consumed (Goldsmith, 1999; Yamagiwa et al., 1992, 1994 ) if the gorillas criss-cross a particular area more frequently, but this might not result in an increase in overall home range area.”
• Dietary Variability of Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda (2004, background): “Likewise, gorillas in Bwindi and Kahuzi-Biega eat only 4 fruit species in common: Myrianthus holstii, Harungana madagascariensis, Syzigium guineense, and Aframomum sanguinum (Casamir, 1975; Yamagiwa et al., 1994; Yumoto et al., 1994).”
• Ranging behavior of the mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei beringei) in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Uganda: a test of the ecological constraints model (2005, background): “…although the actual amount of fruit consumption has not been fully quantified for most populations (Watts 1984; Tutin and Fernandez 1985; Williamson et al. 1990; Yamagiwa et al. 1994, 1996; McNeilage 1995; Remis 1997a; Doran et al. 2002; Cipolletta 2003; Ganas et al. 2004; Nkurunungi 2004).”
• Diet of Grauer's Gorillas in the Montane Forest of Kahuzi, Democratic Republic of Congo (2005, background): “Although the diversity and proportion of fruit in the diet are larger in species of the lowland tropical than in those of the montane forests, both consume many kinds of vegetative foods (Casimir, 1975; Goodall, 1977; Yamagiwa et al., 1994, 1996a).”
