Aotus nancymaae are frugivorous, but, on occasion, feed on insects. Aotus nancymaae feed off of the fruit and the nectar of flowers of trees and insects in the region. They forage near the top of the canopy (Emmons, 1990, Greenberg, 1999, Moynihan, 1976).otus nancymaae mate year round, but it is speculated that offspring are conceived dependent of the availability of resources. This results in seasonal breeding in the wild (Greenberg, 1999). The breeding pair is able to care for up to three offspring at a time.
Tom Volk's Fungus of the Month for January 2002. This month's fungus is Coccidioides immitis, cause of the fungal disease coccidioidomycosis, aka Valley Fever, San Joaquin Valley Fever, desert bumps, desert rheumatism or Posadas' disease. Coccidioides immitis (kok-sid-ee-OID-eez IMM-ih-tiss) is the cause of a nasty fungal disease called coccidioidomycosis (kok-sid-ee-oid-oh-my-KOH-sis). Like the other true-pathogenic, systemic human fungal diseases histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, and paracoccidioidomycosis, Coccidioidomycosis starts out as a lung disease caused by inhalation of the conidia, shown to the left.
