Abstract

Abstract: The nutritional composition of food plays an important role in primate selection. In order to study the nutritional composition of the food for white-headed langur and its influence on food selection, 14 main food and 5 non-main food of white-headed langur were collected from October 2010 to March 2011 in Fusui Nature Reserve, Guangxi, China. The contents of water, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber and mineral elements such as Ca, Fe, Zn and Mn in each independent sample were determined by atmospheric pressure and constant temperature drying method. CP/CF was calculated, and the nutrient content of each independent sample was tested by Mann-Whitney U test. The result showed: 1) There is no significant difference between the composition of water, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre and mineral elements such as Ca, Fe, Zn, Mn, and CP/CF in the main food for white-headed langur and that of the non-main food. 2) There was no significant correlation between the nutrient composition, mineral element content and the ratio of crude protein and crude fiber of the main food and that of the non-main food for white-headed langur when choosing food. Therefore, the results showed that the food selection of Fusui white-headed langur was not affected by water, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, mineral elements such as Ca, Fe, Zn, Mn and the ratio of crude protein and crude fiber.

Key words: white-headed langur (Trachypitheucs leucocephalus), nutrient composition of food, mineral element, CP/CF, food choice
