Ecomorphological analysis of craniofacial variation in colobine monkeys.

Report:KOYABU DAISUKE

Date:2008/09/21 - 2008/10/17

Three dimensional coordinates of major landmarks of the skulls of Asian colobine monkeys were acquired by a three dimensional digitizer at the Raffles'Museum of Biodiversity Research, National University of Singapore. Whether morphological variation among colobine monkeys is a function for dietary adaptation is currently analyzed statistically with the collected data.
