• Food Intake and Dietary Overlap in Native Lemur catta and Propithecus verreauxi and Introduced Eulemur fulvus at Berenty, Southern Madagascar (2003, background): “Annual rainfall varies between 229 and 912 mm, with severe droughts in some years (Jolly et al., 2002).”
• To breed or not to breed—food competition and other factors involved in female breeding decisions in the pair-living nocturnal fork-marked lemur (Phaner furcifer) (2003, background): “Negative correlation with group size implies a strong WGS component (seen in Gorilla gorilla berengei: van Schaik 1983; Watts 1990 and Lemur catta: Jolly et al. 2002), whereas a positive correlation with group size results from strong BGC situations with larger groups displacing smaller ones from…”
• Optimal group size and seasonal stress in ring-tailed lemurs (Lemur catta) (2005, background): “They are characterized by strict female dominance and feeding priority over males as well as by intrasex dominance relationships ( Jolly, 1966, 1984; Sauther, 1993).”
• An exotic plantation crop as a keystone resource for an endemic megachiropteran, Pteropus rufus, in Madagascar (2007, background): “Berenty Reserve contains natural gallery forest (classed as > 50% ‘closed canopy’), transitional ‘scrub’ (classed as > 50% ‘open canopy’) and endemic spiny forest (Jolly et al. 2002).”
• Life in Unpredictable Environments: First Investigation of the Natural History of Microcebus griseorufus (2008, background): “Gould et al. (1999) and Jolly et al. (2002) proposed similar explanations for Lemur catta, which live exclusively in southern Madagascar.”
