Searching for the Haplorrhine Heterotherm: Field and Laboratory Data of Free-Ranging Tarsiers
The observation of heterothermy in a single suborder (Strepsirrhini) only within the primates is puzzling. Given that the placental-mammal ancestor was likely a heterotherm, we explored the potential for heterothermy in a primate closely related to the Strepsirrhini. Based upon phylogeny, body size...
