摘要

摘要对濒危物种的有效保护需要对其栖息地有充分的了解。大多数灵长类动物受到热带森林消失的威胁。极度濒危的基朋吉猴(Rungwecebus kipunji)的一个种群生活在坦桑尼亚南部一片森林的受限区域。这种有限的范围是一个谜。我们整理了木本植被数据,以评估与其他附近森林相比,kipunji核心山脉(Vikongwa)及其周围的栖息地质量。与其他区域和非洲森林相比,Vikongwa的生境质量较高,树干密度、基面积、物种丰富度和食材可利用度均较高。然而,附近的桑杰森林,那里没有kipunji,有与Vikongwa相当的栖息地。我们同意先前的研究,即基普吉依赖于原生林。然而,至少在附近的一个森林中可以找到类似的植被,这表明栖息地并不是基朋吉活动范围有限的唯一原因。

Evaluating the Habitat of the Critically Endangered Kipunji Monkey
ABSTRACT Effective conservation of threatened species requires a good understanding of their habitat. Most primates are threatened by tropical forest loss. One population of the critically endangered kipunji monkey Rungwecebus kipunji occurs in a restricted part of one forest in southern Tanzania. This restricted range is something of an enigma. We collated woody vegetation data to assess habitat quality in and around the core kipunji range (Vikongwa) compared to other nearby forests. Habitat quality in Vikongwa was high compared to other regional and African forests, in that tree stem density, basal area, species richness and availability of kipunji dietary species were all comparatively high. However, the nearby Sanje forest, where the kipunji is absent, had comparable habitat to Vikongwa. We concur with previous research that the kipunji is dependent on old growth forest. However, the availability of comparable vegetation in at least one nearby forest suggests that habitat is not the only reason for the kipunji's restricted range.
