Abstract

Genetic markers among macaques on Cayo Santiago island were analyzed in an attempt to infer aspects of mating structure. Several models that included high levels of gene flow among groups could not be distinguished, but the data are clearly incompatible with group endogamy and with high variance in male fitness. Drift effective size is approximately one half census size in this population.
