Survey of the critically endangered Perrier’s sifaka (Propithecus Perrieri) across most if its distribution range.

Propithecus perrieri (Perrier’s sifaka) is one of the most endangered lemur species due to its small and fragmented distribution range. Despite a Critically Endangered (CR) conservation and flagship species status, there are still many uncertainties regarding its actual distribution and its presence in some forests of its putative distribution range. We report the results of diurnal and nocturnal surveys carried out in 2012 across most forest fragments of its putative distribution range, namely the Ankarana National Park, the Analamerana Special Reserve and Andrafiamena-Andava-koera Protected Area. During our surveys the species was only observed in Andrafiamena and Analamerana protected areas.
