Indonesian Primates

Indonesia possesses the second largest primate population in the world, with over 33 different primate species. Although Brazil possesses more primate species, Indonesia outranks it in terms of its diversity of primates, ranging from prosimians (slow lorises and tarsiers), to a multitude of Old World Monkey species (macaques, langurs, proboscis moneys) to lesser apes (siamangs, gibbons) and great apes (orangutans). The primates of Indonesia are distributed throughout the archipelago.Partly in response to the number of primates distributed throughout the Indonesian archipelago, Indonesia is classified as the home of two biodiversity hotspots (Wallacea and Sundaland). In order to be classified as a hotspot, an area must have a large proportion of endemic species coupled with a high degree of threat including having lost more than 70% of its original habitat. Two areas within Indonesia meet these criteria. The tremendous diversity of primates in Indonesia, in conjunction with the conservation issues facing the primates of this region, created a need for this volume.

This primate field guide can be used to refer to information on each species, or it can be used to find which species exist on each island, as shown at the back of the book. A list of primates in Indonesia is provided with local, English, and scientific names. Once the name is identified the user can go to the description of the genus and species. Also given is the conservation status of each species except for the most recently described, whose status is not yet known. The information on each species' natural history, behavior, ecology, and where to see it in parks and/or forested areas outside parks is included. Field Guide to the Primates of Indonesia primate drawings are by Stephen Nash and photographs were donated by many of the author's friends from Indonesia and abroad.

Ecotourism and Indonesia's Primates

The basic goal of the volume is to compile the most up to date research on the effect of ecotourism on Indonesia’s primates. The tremendous diversity of primates in Indonesia, in conjunction with the conservation issues facing the primates of this region, have created a crisis whereby many of Indonesia’s primates are threatened with extinction. Conservationists have developed the concept of “sustainable ecotourism” to fund conservation activities. National parks agencies worldwide receive as much as 84% of their funding from ecotourism. While ecotourism funds the majority of conservation activities, there have been very few studies that explore the effects of ecotourism on the habitat and species that they are designed to protect. It is the burgeoning use of “ecotourism” throughout Indonesia that has created a need for this volume where the successes and pitfalls at various sites can be identified and compared.

This book contains information on geographic location and park size, climate, topography, history of each park, and biodiversity and ecosystems. It also contains information on local communities adjacent to each park, or in some cases within the parks, and their culture, tourism opportunities, access, tourist facilities nearby, and how to find the park office to get a visitor’s permit.The 55 parks currently declared span the length and breadth of the country. They provided the last remaining refuges for many of Indonesia's charismatic species, such as tigers, elephants, rhinoceros, and orangutans.

Environmental sustainability in the developing world is the focus of this book. Our purpose will not, however, be to produce an endless list of huge numbers of facts about the many developing countries. Indonesia could be considered a proto-typical example of a developing world country. As an archipelago situated along the equator in Southeast Asia, its location is ideal for a prototype—almost all developing countries are tropical. Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Papua in particular, contain a substantial portion of the world’s remaining equatorial rainforests; rainforest management is among the most pressing global sustainability problems.However, Indonesia’s forests are far from monolithic; they include a large set of different biome types. Indonesia’s population is multi-ethnic, a characteristic not only of other very large developing countries like India and Nigeria, but of nearly every African country and of many other formerly colonized regions. Another factor favoring a prototype designation is a relatively recent escape from the category of severe under-development. Indonesia ranked eighth in the world in real per capita GDP growth rate between 1960 and 2018, not an atypical outcome for Southeast Asian market economies—Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Myanmar ranked even higher (EarthTrends of World Resources Institute). Like most developing countries, economic growth has mainly been sparked by exports of energy and mineral extraction products and plantation crops. There is also manufacturing growth; Indonesia has seven ‘million’ cities and the world’s sixth-largest metro area by population. At the same time, many of the population remain engaged in agriculture; many are extremely impoverished. Environmental problems Indonesia encounters in its path to economic development are typical of those in other developing countries, and solutions it may find can serve as guidelines for other developing countries anticipating a similar economic take-off. This book consists of 21 chapters on sustainability efforts in Indonesia by many stakeholders, government, local government, private sectors, NGOs and communities.
