The Aye Aye

Aye Aye :: WLR:- Aye Aye is a lemur, a citizen of the primate from Madagascar that combines rodent strepsirrhine such as teeth and half a finger thin private to fill the same niche as the ecological integrity and woodpeckers. Primates, it is the biggest night of the world, and his style is characterized by rare to find food, but it struck the trees in search of worms, and that eats holes in the wood and the introduction of its finger near the east exit of worms. The only known species to find food in this way is planned simulation. From an environmental perspective, aye, occupies the position of the peak, it is also capable of penetrating wood to extract in invertebrates.

Because of morphological derivatives, were discussed Aye Aye classification, since its discovery. Possession is a growing incisors (front teeth) which are parallel to those of rodents, leading to the nature of the error in the classification at the start, aye, of the order of rodents.

The classification of Aye Aye, in primates is uncertain then. Has been considered a key member of the family and mouse derived, a branch of the basal strepsirrhine monotonous, and the relationship is specific to all living primates. In 1931, Anthony and Coupin classified in IE, in Chiromyiformes Don, a sister group of other strepsirrhines. The Colin Groves in this category in 2005 because he was not entirely convinced that the Aye Aye, form a clade with the rest of the lemurs of Madagascar , although the molecular tests have shown that Daubentoniidae base, each Lemuriformes , and derived from the ancestor raft lemur in Madagascar during the Paleocene Eocene or. In 2008, Russell Mittermeier, Colin Groves, and others to ignore against high level classification of lemurs through the precursor of the identification unit and contains five families of life, including Daubentoniidae. 

Aye Aye, and the question of the animal usually eats, nuts, and insect larvae, fruits and juices, seeds, mushrooms, and a classification of all plants and animals. Aye Aye, are particularly fond of beetles, cerambycid. Pick fruit trees as it moves through the canopy, often barely stop doing it.
