摘要: 本文是中国猕猴湖南-湖北和广东-福建种群颅骨的多变量分析。结果表明,二者的面宽和颅骨的形态结构除有明显的性二型外,还存在较大的差异。湖南-湖北种群的颅骨结构相对大于福建—广东种群。它们与云南南部和海南岛猕猴颅骨的判别分析结果表明,由于地理和生态隔离,四者雌雄两性颅骨的形态结构均有较大的差异,达到种群间的显著差异水平(P<0.01),分别应属不同的亚种.

Abstract: This paper carried out the multivariate analysis on the skulls of rhesus monkeys distributing in Hunan, Hubei, Fujian and Guangdong provinces, China. The results of ONEWAY analysis on 20 variables of the skulls showed that the rhesus group of Hunan-Hubei has relatively larger skull and more well-developed masticate organs than those of Guangdong-Fujian group. There are significantly different skull characteristics between Hunan-Hubei group and Fujian-Guangdong group. Hainan island group could be evidently identified from other groups. Those differences might be the results of the geographical and ecological isolations. It is suggested that the rhesus monkeys distributing in Hunan-Hubei and Fujian-Guangdong belong to two different groups or subspecies of Macaca mulatta.
