The Aye-Aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) Found in the Eastern Rainforest of Madagascar

View through CrossRef
In the course of a study on the ecology of nocturnal lemurs several aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) were seen in the eastern rainforest of Madagascar near Perinet. These observations of the aye-aye in a forest of higher altitude suggest a still much wider distribution of this species than previously thought.
