Roaring rhythms in black howler monkeys (Alouatta pigra) of Belize

Abstract

Roaring was recorded during 15-min intervals for 55 days from April 29 to July 14, 1981 in the area around Bermuda Landing, Belize. Roaring profiles were compiled to represent four three-week periods in which roaring was graphed against the time of day. Rates of roaring were also calculated for three troops. Results indicate a gradual change in the daily profile of roaring from dry to rainy season. The marked bimodality of roaring at dawn and dusk in the dry season changed to a more dampened bimodality with reduced dawn and dusk peaks and more roaring during the midday in the rainy season. This seems related to the decreased hours of sun and the amount of rain during the wet season. Additionally, literature on monkeys with long range vocalizations suggests that bimodal peaks in calling may be more prevalent in species which display territorial defense.
