Eight free‐ranging black spider monkeys (Ateles paniscus chamek) were immobilized with Telazol® in Bolivia for the purpose of radio‐collaring, and a variety of physical abnormalities were found.
Towing the party line: territoriality, risky boundaries and male group size in spider monkey fission–fusion societies
- R. B. Wallace
- BiologyAmerican Journal of Primatology
- 1 March 2008
Data suggesting that spider monkeys (Ateles chamek) at Lago Caiman are territorial is presented; adult males traveled further and faster than adult females and subgroup size was significantly higher in boundary areas of the spider monkey territory where intercommunity disputes were observed than in non‐boundary areas.

Abstract We conducted field surveys for titi monkeys (Callicebus spp.) in the vicinity of the original collection sites of two poorly known species, Callicebus olallae and Callicebus modestus. Two…
The Influence of Feeding Patch Size and Relative Fruit Density on the Foraging Behavior of the Black Spider Monkey Ateles chamek
- R. B. Wallace
- Biology
- 1 July 2008
Black spider monkey Ateles chamek foraging data from eastern Bolivia is examined in relation to the size of fruit patches and the relative fruit density within the patch to discuss the foraging ecology of fission–fusion primate social systems and previous studies on the influence of patch size.
