Abstract
The golden-crowned sifaka (Propithecus tattersalli) is one of the most critically endangered species of Propithecus endemic to a limited area in the Daraina region of north-eastern Madagascar. This species is endangered due to habitat loss and fragmentation, a consequence of deforestation. Twenty nuclear microsatellite loci were isolated from genomic DNA derived from a Propithecus tattersalli from the Daraina area in north-eastern Madagascar. Population genetic parameters were estimated on 20 individuals from two Daraina forest fragments to determine the potential utility of this marker suite for future studies on the golden-crowned sifaka.
