“…The ∼40 publications on subfossil lemurs penned by Elwyn Simons and collaborators feature diverse topics. These include lemur systematics and phylogeny (Godfrey et al, ; Jungers et al, ; Simons, Godfrey, Jungers, Chatrath, & Rakotosamimanana, ; Tattersall, Simons, & Vuillaume‐Randriamanantena, ; Vuillaume‐Randriamanantena, Godfrey, Jungers, & Simons, ; Simons et al, ), past versus present biogeography, temporal ranges of subfossil lemurs, community characteristics, and the chronology of extinction of large lemurs and associated fauna (Jungers, Godfrey, Simons, & Chatrath, ; Simons, Burney, Chatrath, Godfrey, Jungers, & Rakotosamimanana, ; Godfrey, Jungers, Reed, Simons, & Chatrath, ; Simons, ; Godfrey, Jungers, Simons, Chatrath, & Rakotosamimana, ; Godfrey, Simons, Jungers, DeBlieux, & Chatrath, ; Muldoon & Simons, ; Muldoon et al, ; Muldoon, Crowley, Godfrey, Rasoamiaramanana, Aronson, Jernvall, Wright, & Simons, ; Muldoon, Crowley, Godfrey, & Simons, ). Other topics are reconstructing the behavior of extinct animals (Jungers, Godfrey, Simons, Wunderlich, Richmond, Chatrath, & Rakotosamimanana, ), subfossil lemur ontogeny, dental microstructure and life history (Ravosa & Simons, ; King, Godfrey, & Simons, ; Schwartz, Samonds, Godfrey, Jungers, & Simons, ; Ravosa, Stock, Simons, & Kunwar, ), dental microwear and occlusal texture analysis (Godfrey, Semprebon, Jungers, Sutherland, Simons, & Solounias, ; Scott, Godfrey, Jungers, Scott, Simons, Teaford, Ungar, & Walker, ), semicircular canal systems (Walker, Ryan, Silcox, Simons, & Spoor, ), hand and foot anatomy (Wunderlich, Simons, & Jungers, ; Jungers, Godfrey, Simons, & Chatrath, ; Hamrick, Simons, & Jungers, ; Jungers, Lemelin, Godfrey, Wunderlich, Burney, Simons, Chatrath, James, & Randria, ), vertebral anatomy (Shapiro, Seiffert, Godfrey, Jungers, Simons, & Randria, ), and field work adventures in Madagascar (Simons, Godfrey, Vuillaume‐Randriamanantena, Chatrath, & Gagnon, ; Simons, ; Simons et al, ).…”
