Don E. Wilson, Handbook of the Mammals of the World Volume 3: Primates
This, the third volume of HMW, counts more than 470 of them: 138 species of prosimians—the lemurs, lorises, pottos and tarsiers in Africa and Asia;
156 species of monkeys in the New World tropics; another 158 monkeys in the Old World tropics; and 25 apes, 19 of them gibbons along with six chimpanzees,
gorillas and orangutans. Much of this extraordinary diversity has been discovered only in the past two decades.
In the 1980s the count was 180 species. Now we know so much more of their diversity, and this volume of HMW presents them in all their remarkable variety
of shapes, sizes, colors, habits and specializations.
2013, 952 p., 24 x 31 cm, Hardcover, Lynx Edicions, ISBN 9788496553897, Euro 155.00
