a

these data are based on censusing an island of forest of 0.33 ha. Thus, the estimates of density are based on repeated sampling of a very small area corresponding to the territory of one group.

b

the number of groups was not reported, so it was estimated dividing the density of individuals by the reported average group size

c

only eight sightings while censusing during daylight. The source refers to A. trivirgatus, but it should be A. griseimembra.

d

the data were collected in a forest remnant that may have served as a refuge, probably explaining the very unusual high density of 150 ind/km2
