Feeding ecology and seed dispersal of sympatric cheirogaleid lemurs (Microcebus murinus, Cheirogaleus medius, Cheirogaleus major) in the littoral rainforest of south‐east Madagascar (2007, background): “Their distribution is restricted to the island of Madagascar and the family retained many characteristics that are ancestral to all lemurs and primates in general since this family branched off first from the ancestral stock of primates (Yoder, 1994, 1997; Martin, 2000; Pastorini, Thalmann & Martin,”
Ecological models of female social relationships in primates: similarities, disparities, and some directions for future clarity (2002, background): “invaded at least once about 30 mya, with the invaders most likely coming from Africa (Klein, 1989; Fleagle & Kay, 1997; Fleagle, 1999; Martin, 2001; but see Arnason et al., 2001).”
Food Intake and Dietary Overlap in Native Lemur catta and Propithecus verreauxi and Introduced Eulemur fulvus at Berenty, Southern Madagascar (2003, background): “Further, phylogenetic trees agree in indicating closer relationship of Lemur catta to folivorous Hapalemur than to Eulemur (Martin, 2000).”
