The paper by Dr. Goro Hanya (with Dr. Yamato Tsuji and Dr. Cyril C. Grueter), entitled “Fruiting and flushing phenology in Asian tropical and temperate forests: implications for primate ecology” (Hanya et al. 2013) was cited most frequently in 2014 among those published in Primates during the term from 2012 to 2013. Their work thus contributed greatly to enhancing the reputation of our journal. For this achievement, Dr. Hanya will receive gifts from the Japan Monkey Centre, the Primate Society of Japan, and Springer.
