| description | Over 50% of the land surface in south-east Asia, including Borneo, has been converted for agricultural use, contributing to the high rate of deforestation
(Zhao et al., 2006), such development severely impacting the mammalian faunas. Primates are often considered crucial among the tropical arboreal faunas (Eisenberg and Lockhart, 1972). They use a range of forest resources, suggestive of vital roles in the ecology of tropical forests, including seed dispersal (Corlett, 2009). Borneo's primate community is a vibrant one, and often regarded as useful indicators of both lowland and highland forest diversity (Meijaard and Nijman, 2003). Western Sarawak harbours 11 of 14 primate
species known from Sarawak State (Phillipps and Phillipps, 2016). The current population trend of many primate species in Sarawak shows a marked decrease due to habitat loss and illegal hunting. Therefore, field surveys for primates are
necessary to document distribution ranges, especially in localities undergoing rapid development. |
