The impact of cropping on wild populations of Saguinus mystax and Saguinus fuscicollis in Peru
Abstract
A transect census technique was used to estimate the population densities of Saguinus
mystax and Saguinus fuscicollis at two sites in Peru. Cropping of these two species
had occurred five years before the census at one site and two years before at the
other. The populations of S. mystax at both sites had recovered completely from cropping,
and the relationship between S. mystax and S. fuscicollis had not been altered at
one site and had been reversed in favor of S. mystax at the other. Copyright © 1984
