AB: Abstract
Two species of frugivorous atelids, Ateles chamek and Lagothrix cana, occur in southwestern Brazilian Amazonia. Populations
were surveyed at 36 sites in the state of Rondonia. Ateles chamek is widespread, but the distribution of L. cana is limited by a
combination of riverine barriers and ecological factors, possibly including competition with A. chamek. Groups of L. cana were
generally larger and more abundant than those of A. chamek, even in syntopy. The transitional forest that predominates in the
extreme south of Rondonia (Hylea-cerrado) is not a barrier to either species, with both species being tolerant of habitat
disturbance when hunting pressure is low.
