Foreword; Acknowledgements; 1. Introduction: overview of lorises and
pottos; Part I. Evolution, Morphology and Fossil Record: 2. Sluggards and
drunkards? A history of the discovery and description of the Afro-Asian
lorisidae; 3. What we know (and don't know) about the fossil records of
lorisids; 4. Outliers: have lorisids moved beyond touch?; 5. Molecular
advances in lorisid taxonomy and phylogeny; 6. The toothcomb of Karanisia
Clarki: how does exudate-feeding fit into the ecology of this loris-like
basal strepsirrhine?; 7. The soft-tissue anatomy of the highly derived hand
of perodicticus relative to the more generalised nycticebus; 8. Making
scents of olfactory sensitivity in lorises and pottos; 9. Allometric and
phylogenetic diversity in lorisiform orbit orientation; 10. The evolution
of social organisation in lorisiformes; 11. Biomechanics of loris
locomotion; 12. What role did gum-feeding play in the evolution of the
lorises?; Part II. Ecology and Captive Management: 13. Nutrition of
lorisiformes; 14. Seeing in the dark: visual function and ecology of
lorises and pottos; 15. Thermoregulation in lorises; 16. Home range,
activity budgets and habitat use in the Bengal slow loris (Nycticebus
Bengalensis) in Bangladesh; 17. Behaviour of pottos and angwantibos; 18.
Positional behaviour and substrate preference of slow lorises, with a case
study of nycticebus Bengalensis; 19. Sexual differences in feeding and
foraging of released Philippine slow lorises; 20. Ranging patterns of the
pygmy slow loris (Nycticebus Pygmaeus) in a mixed deciduous forest in
Eastern Cambodia; 21. Utilising current and historical zoo records to
provide insight into the captive biology of rarely kept pottos and
angwantibos; 22. Mother-infant behaviours in greater slow loris (nycticebus
coucang) dyads consisting of mothers pregnant at confiscation and their
sanctuary-born infants; 23. Husbandry and reproductive management
recommendations for captive lorises and pottos (nycticebus, loris, and
perodicticus); Part III. Research, Trade and Conservation: 24. Trapping,
collaring and monitoring the lorisinae of Asia (loris, nycticebus) and
perodicticinae (arctocebus, perodicticus) of Africa; 25. Evaluation of
field techniques used to assess populations of pottos and lorises; 26.
Occupancy modelling as a method to study slender loris density; 27. Using
accelerometers to measure nocturnal primate behaviour; 28. Distribution and
conservation status of slow lorises in Indo-China; 29. Wildlife trade
research methods for lorises and pottos; 30. Online imagery and loris
conservation; 31. Slow lorises as photo props on Instagram; 32. Integrating
science and puppetry to inspire teenagers in rural Asia to value slow
lorises; 33. Developing a rescue and rehabilitation centre as a reaction to
the extensive illegal wildlife trade in slow lorises; References; Index.
