In primates, mixed species associations are not common occurrences, and have been linked to both ecological and anthropogenic factors. We present camera-trapping records of a mixed association between two primates, the Hatinh langur () and red-shanked douc () and discuss possible hypotheses for this occurrence. To our knowledge, this is the first evidence of such an association in the wild of these two threatened primates, and thus contributes to our limited ecological knowledge of the species.
在灵长类动物中,混合物种关联并不常见,且与生态和人为因素都有关联。我们展示了两种灵长类动物——越南仰鼻猴()和红腿白臀叶猴()之间混合关联的相机陷阱记录,并讨论了这种现象可能的假设。据我们所知,这是这两种濒危灵长类动物在野外存在这种关联的首个证据,因此有助于扩充我们对该物种有限的生态认知。
