Abstract
The study reports on the inter- and intra-specific associations of Macaca radiata, M. silenus, Presbytis entellus and P. johnii in the Anaimalai Hills of south India. Whereas M. silenus and P. entellus are found to be habitat specialists inhabiting rain forest and deciduous forest respectively, IM. radiata and P. johnii are habitat generalists found in almost every forest type. Whereas individual groups of macaques can be found to occur in absence of any other groups of their species, the langurs occur only in large intra-specific associations. It is suggested that M. silenus can be considered as an umbrella species for the management of the entire ecosystem of these hills.
