The basic goal of the volume is to compile the most up to date research on how high altitude affects the behavior, ecology, evolution and conservation status of primates, especially in comparison to lowland populations. Historically, the majority of primate studies have focused on lowland populations. However, as the lowlands have been disappearing, more and more primatologists have begun studying populations located in higher altitudes. High altitude populations are important not only because of their uniqueness, but also because they highlight the range of primate adaptability and the...

This volume examines how high altitude affects the behavior, ecology, evolution and conservation status of primates, especially in comparison to lowland populations. It gives examples of how geographic scales result in diversification and/or speciation.
