The basic vocal repertoire of the Crested Gibbon (Hylobates concolor leucogenys) can be defined from qualitative and quantitative analysis of the vocalizations. From sonagraphic analysis of calls of 9 juveniles, one adult ♂, one sub-adult ♂ and one sub-adult ♀ arranged in three semi-free living groups, one can describe six vocal types on a morphological basis. The sound repertoire of juveniles is composed of graded signals which seem to become more discrete and fewer as the individual matures. These features are compared with other Cercopithecides and Pongides on the basis of eco-ethological and ontogenetic implications. |
