Bellaterra 2022, kt., 536 Seiten, Großfomat quer, mehrere Hundert Farbfotos. This book presents of 193 Asian primates in their natural habitats, the fruit of hundreds of amateur and professional wildlife photographers, primatologists and wildlife protection organizations. All currently recognized species and subspecies, along with images showing variation in pelage colour for nine of them, and images of 19 subspecies named as distinct subspecies in the past but which are now considered to be junior synonyms. A distribution map, a short introductory text, and a listing of the species and subspecies introduce each chapter devoted to the five Asian primate families, their subfamilies and genera. A photo plate shows a close-up of the face and, behind it, when possible, males, females and young in the habitat, for each species and subspecies. On the opposite page, each taxon is accompanied by its scientific name, a common name in English and French, and its Red List status. There is a map and a description of their geographic range, along with brief but fully referenced notes on their taxonomy (nomenclatural history), and a summary of the threats each face and their conservation measures.
