There is a large body of research describing the evolutionary importance of plumage coloration among avian species. However , similar datasets are lacking for mammalian pelage. Furthermore , very little research has examined the variations of nonhuman primate (NHP) pelage coloration and patterning. Primatologists have noted conspicuous differences in coloration and patterning among NHPs , including neo-natal coats and sexual dichromatism. Sexual dichromatism refers to the differences in pelage coloration between the sexes of a single species. Sexual dichromatism is rare , but found among some species of lemurs , New World monkeys , and lesser apes. To illuminate the genetic mechanism of NHP sexual dichromatism , I examined published...
