Cover Madagascar has often made headlines for its high deforestation rates and conservation challenges, and the forest-dwelling Vulnerable brown lemur Eulemur fulvus of Madagascar (pictured) is one of more than 100 lemur species assessed on the IUCN Red List. However, extrapolation of current deforestation rates to 2050 indicates that the protected area system will continue to provide a stronghold for the conservation of forest ecosystems and lemurs for at least the next 30 years. This should allow sufficient time for the implementation of effective conservation measures. Along with five additional articles and the accompanying editorial, this issue of Oryx examines some of the major contemporary challenges for the conservation of primates. For further details, see pp. 137–138 & 155–191. (Photograph © David Pattyn/
