Age of known sexual maturity or first successful conception; (2) Adulthood. Span between maturity and end of lifespan; (3) Assumed Elderly. Ages used to categorize old-age; (4) Menopause. Age at cessation of menstrual cycling for females; (5) Typical Lifespan. Typical age at death for captive individuals in this species, drawn from life expectancy and mean or median lifespan values; (6) Maximum Lifespan. Oldest documented age for an individual of this species. Reference values are drawn from Table 1. Vervet: aka African green monkey
