Primate Biogeography Progress and Prospects

Primate Biogeography Progress and Prospects / edited by Shawn M. Lehman, John G Fleagle.

Biogeography, the study of the distribution of organisms over the surface of the earth, plays a central role in our understanding of virtually all aspects of the biology of primates and other animals, including systematics, mechanisms of speciation, population genetics and demography. The distributi...
