HPLC profiles of Eulemur collaris.
HPLC profiles of immunoreactivity detected with the 3α,11oxo-CM assay in a male (black circles) and female (white triangles) fecal sample extract. Arrows indicate elution positions of reference standards (1) cortisol (fraction 15), (2) corticosterone (22), (3) 11β-hydroxyetiocholanolone (23/24), (4) 11-oxoetiocholanolone (29), (5) βandostrane-3,11,17-trione (36), (6) testosterone (44), (7) androstendione, dehydroepiandrosterone (55/56), (8) epiandrosterone, 5β-DHT, 5β-androstrane-3β-ol-17-one (72), (9) 5β-androstrane-3α-ol-17-one (82/83), (10) androsterone (100).

Fecal glucocorticoid metabolite levels of Eulemur collaris over the study period.
The figure shows standardized residuals of lnfGCM after controlling for the sample weight. MAN: Mandena, STL: Sainte Luce. Lean: May–October 2011, Abundance: February–April 2011 and November 2011–January 2012. Mating: 1st May–15th July, Gestation: 16th July–30th September, Lactation: 1st October–31st December, Non-reproductive: 1st January–30th April. Values are means and standard errors.
