520 _a"A previous study in Madagascar revealed Lemur mongoz to be nocturnal and to exhibit pair-bonding. Subsequent work in the Comoro Islands has shown that, whereas in the warm, seasonal lowland areas of Moheli and Anjouan L. mongoz is likewise nocturnal, in the humid highlands of Anjouan these animals are active during the day. This difference appears to be environmentally linked. Further, on Anjouan L. mongoz exhibits pair-bonding and the formation of "family" groups, but on Moheli there is a variation in group structure. It is possible that group composition of L. mongoz on Moheli undergoes seasonal change."
