Macaque fuscata 27 May 1966 Kyoto, Japan about 21♂♀, 18 born in April. Wild troop earlier than provisioned! (I think Lindburg found wild troop nr. Debra Den earlier than a forest dept. grounds gr. in 1966.) Does more abundant food = later mating? Another man recently returned from Takahashi, report- ed 13 inf's. found thus to May 26. } Kawai, incidentally, now recording molt, and agree that it is earlier when cooler birth season is early, as at Shodoshima (vs. Kosheina). 28 May 1966. By boat to Kosheina, Miyazaki-ken, with Yoshiba and Fuenya. High, densely green vegetation of shrubs and trees, shore lived us. low sandstone cliffs. One fisherman, wife, & dog live on the island. Minimum water barrier about 200 meters or mainland side. Said to be many raccoons on island. Animals poorly fed up to 2 years ago and probably stunted. Until then, seldom had normal sex behavior (?) until 6 yrs. old, but now start at 3½. Usually first birth at 5 yrs. (Yoshiba). Fertility also low, as only 7 born to 20 ad.♂♀ last year. Y. also said ♂♂ 1, 2, 3 did little actual mating, but 142 espec- ially after ♂♂ sat by ♀ and masturbated to ejacul- ation. Solitary ♂♂ (7) did most of the mating. Composition: total 59. 22 ad. ♂♂ (5 yrs. at), 20 ad. ♀♀ (14 yrs, 1-5, rest 6 at+), 1 inf. (born May 12 to low ranking ♀ which had no inf last yr. or 2), and 16 inims. (+5 yrs., 5 yearlings, but no 2-yrs olds. - a typhoon in Sept. of 1964 kept everyone from island for many days, and all adults survived but no infants survived. ) Seel ♂♀ now in advanced
