Sundry points about the biogeography and life-history strategies of primates

Primates in the Americas are remarkably small-bodied (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_World_monkey).

There are no gummivorous (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gummivore) primates in Asia.

Primates in Madagascar (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mammals_of_Madagascar) tend to be solitary rather than gregarious.

Of the primates with irregular activity, all but one species live in Madagascar (https://www.inaturalist.org/posts/98222-sundry-points-about-the-biogeography-and-life-history-strategies-of-primates#activity_comment_891fab46-f9fd-477d-bcdc-df22efebcadc).

Only Asia has strictly animal-eating primates (https://www.perplexity.ai/search/which-primates-eat-only-animal-Ld3FqEDFQhSuZPVXIceKlw).

There are no strictly greens-eating primates in the Americas (https://www.perplexity.ai/search/which-primates-eat-only-animal-Ld3FqEDFQhSuZPVXIceKlw).

Colobines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colobinae) grow rapidly compared to non leaf-eating monkeys

Callitrichids (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callitrichidae) grow rapidly compared to other monkeys

Lorises (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorisidae) have slow growth and long gestation for strepsirrhines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strepsirrhini)

Cheirogaleids (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheirogaleidae) have short gestation periods and rapid growth compared to lemurs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemuridae)

Strepsirrhines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strepsirrhini) have small neonates and large litters compared to haplorrhines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplorhini)
