37
Q

Frugivores- pros

A

fruit
High in energy and nutrients
easy to find and digest

38
Q

Frugivores- cons

A

low in protein
seasonal
expend more energy in finding fruit

39
Q

Frugivoore- body

A

broad incisors, low cusps, shorter shearing crests
larger: rely on leaves for protein
smaller: rely on insects for protein

40
Q

Kay’s Threshold

A

all insectivorous primates < 500g
while all folivorous primates
> 500g
frugivorous primates span a broad range of body sizes (30g –
80 kg).

41
Q

Jarmen Bell Principle

A

larger primates eat more abundant but lower quality foods
smaller primates tend to consume rarer but higher quality foods

42
Q

Folivores- pros

A

leaves
mature leaves abundant
high in protein
easy to find
little energy to find them

43
Q

Folivores-cons

A

young leaves seasonal
low in sugars
hard to digest and masticate
lots of energy to digest, but not find
need gut specializations

44
Q

Folivores- body

A

Sacculated stomach or enlarged colon
elongated intestines
sharp, well developed shearing crests, narrower incisors than frugivores
larger primates

45
Q

Insectivores- pros

A

insects
high in protein & carbs
abundant

46
Q

Insectivores- cons

A

must hunt, hard catch
hard find
can be seasonal
energy expend to catch

47
Q

Insectivores- body

A

sharp high molar cusps, shearing crests well developed to cut into exoskeleton
short simple gut
smaller primates
