Sportive Lemur

Estimates of population size are fundamental to setting conservation priorities for threatened primate species. Many taxa in the lemur genus <i>Lepilemur</i> remain understudied, and basic population statistics are often dated, incomplete, or absent. Hubbard’s sportive lemur (<i>Lepilemur hubbardorum</i>) is known only from the Zombitse-Vohibasia National Park region in southwestern Madagascar. It is listed as Endangered by the IUCN owing to its fragmented, declining habitat and limited geographic range. However, this classification has not been confirmed through systematic population estimates. To address this issue, we undertook line transect surveys in the Zombitse parcel of the National Park. We applied geospatial analyses and data to quantify forest area as a proxy for <i>L</i>. <i>hubbardorum</i>habitat. We recorded a total of 234 <i>L</i>.<i> hubbardorum</i> sightings over 18 survey nights, representing 47.2 km of survey effort. Our surveys revealed population densities of 145.6 <i>L</i>.<i> hubbardorum</i> individuals per km<sup>2</sup> (95% CI: 97.2–218.1), for an extrapolated abundance estimate of ca. 16,500–18,000 <i>L</i>. <i>hubbardorum</i> individuals across the protected forests of the Zombitse parcel. This abundance estimate should be considered provisional, however, because our restricted sampling area did not include the more remote regions of the National Park where habitat disturbance and hunting practices have likely contributed to localized population declines.
