Data from: Life history profiles for 27 strepsirrhine primate taxa generated using captive data from the Duke Lemur Center

Since its establishment in 1966, the Duke Lemur Center (DLC) has accumulated detailed records for nearly 4200 individuals from over 40 strepsirrhine primate taxa – the lemurs, lorises, and galagos. Here we present verified data for 3627 individuals of 27 taxa in the form of a life history table containing summarized species values for variables relating to ancestry, reproduction, longevity, and body mass, as well as the two raw data files containing direct and calculated variables from which this summary table is built. Large sample sizes, longitudinal data that in many cases span an animal’s entire life, exact dates of events, and large numbers of individuals from closely related yet biologically diverse primate taxa make these datasets unique. This single source for verified raw data and systematically compiled species values, particularly in combination with the availability of associated biological samples and the current live colony for research, will support future studies from an enormous spectrum of disciplines.杜克狐猴中心（Duke Lemur Center, DLC）自1966年成立以来，已积累了来自40余个原猴亚目灵长类类群（strepsirrhine primate taxa）——包括狐猴、懒猴与丛猴——的近4200个个体的详细记录。本研究发布了27个类群共3627个个体的验证后数据：其一为生命史表格，内含与祖先谱系、繁殖、寿命及体质量相关的物种汇总变量值；同时附带两份原始数据文件，存储了用于构建该汇总表格的直接测量变量与计算衍生变量。庞大的样本规模、多数可覆盖动物完整生命周期的纵向数据、精准的事件发生日期，以及来自亲缘关系相近但生物学多样性丰富的灵长类类群的大量个体样本，使本数据集具备独特性。这套整合了验证后原始数据与系统化整理的物种汇总值的单一数据源，结合配套的生物样本库与当前可供研究的活体种群，将为横跨众多学科领域的未来研究提供有力支撑。
