Effects of habitat structure and fragmentation on diversity and abundance of primates in tropical deciduous forests in Bolivia
2010  International Journal of Primatology (31): 796-812

We aimed to investigate the relationships between primate diversity and abundance and habitat parameters in 10 deciduous forest fragments southeast of Santa Cruz, Bolivia. We obtained primate data via line-transect surveys and visual and acoustic observations. In general, except for Send‚ro Ecol¢gico and Lomas de Arena, where we observed a puma (_Puma concolor_) once and found puma footprints, respectively, we did not record any evidence, e.g., dung, vocalizations, of large predators in the study area.
