• Colobine forestomach anatomy and diet 

  Matsuda, Ikki; Chapman, Colin A.; Clauss, Marcus (2019-08)

  The study supports the notion that a large gut capacity is an important characteristic by which herbivores survive on a high fibre diet, and that this large gut capacity may not be necessary for some species if there are ...
• Does the presence of elephant dung create hotspots of growth for existing seedlings? 

  Kalbitzer, Urs; McInnis, Victoria; Omeja, Patrick A.; Bortolamiol, Sarah; Chapman, Colin A. (2019-03)

  In general, the addition of elephant dung did not increase seedling growth, and only increased the number of leaves in shade-tolerant plants with a large initial number of leaves. Researchers have speculated that the loss ...
• Primate responses to changing environments in the anthropocene 

  Kalbitzer, Urs; Chapman, Colin A. (2018-10)

  Most primates have slow life-histories and long generation times. Because environmental change is occurring at an unprecedented rate, gene-based adaptations are unlikely to evolve fast enough to offer successful responses ...
• Primate-plant mutualisms : is there evidence for primate fruit syndromes? 

  Valenta, Kim; Chapman, Colin A. (2018-10)

  For over thirty years, researchers have identified the traits of “primate fruits” (fruits that are exclusively or primarily dispersed by primates). This book chapter reviews the primate fruit syndrome hypothesis in the ...
• How variable is a primate`s world : spatial and temporal variation in potential ecological drivers of behaviour? 

  Chapman, Colin A.; Valenta, Kim; Bortolamiol, Sarah (2018-10)
