| This non-commercial database for conservation of
lorises and pottos is still under construction and
partly unrevised. Please excuse incomplete data; see
also impressum: some remarks
about the data included. In cases of doubt please use
the original literature quoted. Since taxonomy has
repeatedly been changed and further changes are
expected, taxonomic names included here are not always
the names officially valid at present, see remarks
added; to be sure for which populations given data are
valid see list
of
synonyms.
In some captive care matters such as nutrition
experience is not yet sufficient, please do not blame us
for any consequences from use of data included here, and
please help us to recognize where improvement is
necessary.
Compiler and illustrator: Helga Schulze (Ruhr-University Bochum, contact address), some coauthors: see below. Any help to improve this data collection for the sake
of the animals would be great. New data are included
under the names of authors and are supposed to be quoted
under their names by database users. (If you can
contribute anything, information how to quote you would
be helpful). Useful information may also be included
anonymously. Who´s who in the loris world?
