In this type of gut, bacterial fermentation pro- vides at least a partial hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicelluloses occurring after the absorption of the largest part of the soluble sugars, fats, and amino acids. (2) Sacculated stomach in Presbytis, Colobus, and Nasalis, where the bacteria and flagellae affect the food at an early stage of digestion. This is followed by selective absorption as the digesta move down the gut. Not only gut morphology, but different strategies of adaptation to the environment which involve be- havior and sociology are also important characteris- tics of leaf-eaters. These feeding strategies related to folivory affect many primate species —in addition to those whose staple food is leaves—because in natural conditions, leaves are the main source of protein for most of the large frugivorous primates. Several examples are presented below, with a com- parison of the ecological niches of these leaf-eating primates in different natural systems. Prosimians as Folivores A specialized prosimianfolivore. The sportive lemur, Lepilemur leucopus, which lives in the south of Madagascar, provides a rare example of a specialist for leaf-eating among the primates (Fig- ure 1). This nocturnal species, which feeds mostly on crassulescent leaves, reingests a part of its fecal mat- erial, just like the rabbit which practices "caeco- trophy" (Taylor, 1940). Such a peculiar behavior is unique among the primates (Charles-Dominique and Hladik, 1971), but the other features related to the folivory of the sportive lemur are typical of the other folivorous primates.
