The Tongue in Three Species of Lemurs: Flower and Nectar Feeding Adaptations
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Comparative studies of primate gustatory anatomy are sparse and incomplete. Here, we compare both the macro and micro anatomy of the tongue in three lemurid species. We included two non-destructive nectar-feeders, Varecia variegata and Eulemur macaco, and one destructive flower feede...
