Article Synopsis
- The study explored the gut mycobiota (fungi) of three snub-nosed monkey species using advanced sequencing techniques, revealing that R. bieti had greater gut mycobiota diversity compared to R. roxellana and R. strykeri.
- Beta diversity suggested R. roxellana and R. bieti had similar diets, while core mycobiota shared among the species hinted at common feeding habits influenced by their environments.
- Certain fungi, notably lichen parasites, posed threats to both the monkeys and their food sources, emphasizing the connection between gut mycobiota, diet, and environmental factors.

White-cheeked macaque Macaca leucogenys is a recently described primate species discovered by camera-trap surveys in the Medog region in 2015. The species was thought to be narrowly distributed in southeastern Tibet. However, knowledge on the distribution and conservation of the species is quite limited.

Hybridization is widely recognized as promoting both species and phenotypic diversity. However, its role in mammalian evolution is rarely examined. We report historical hybridization among a group of snub-nosed monkeys () that resulted in the origin of a hybrid species.

The snub-nosed monkey genus (Colobinae) comprises five species (, , , , and ). They are range-restricted species occurring only in small areas in China, Vietnam, and Myanmar. All extant species are listed as endangered or critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List, all with decreasing populations.
