Dominance hierarchy in the male group of ruffed lemurs (\kur{Varecia} spp.) in the Ostrava ZOO
STEHLÍKOVÁ, Jitka
This study investigates a dominance hierarchy in a male group of ruffed lemurs (Varecia spp.). I introduce a new method of data processing in unstable and inconsistent dominance hierarchy. Data were collected in the Ostrava ZOO during 30 days in the summer of 2009 and 28 days in the of winter 2010. The results demonstrate unusual structure in the sequences of agonistic interactions. The lemur group exhibited unstable and inconsistent dominance hierarchy with a low level of linearity. It appears that dominance hierarchy in ruffed lemurs is based on their social role in the family group and not on agonistic interactions.

Describing the dominance hierarchy in animals: rating of individuals.
STEHLÍKOVÁ, Jitka
In this thesis I review some of methods used in research on dominance hierarchy in animals. I will focus on analytical approaches designed to quantify dominance position of individuals within a social group. These techniques include, among others, sociometric matrices and a range of dominance indices. I will discus advantages and disadvantages of various analytical tools, strategies of choice for collecting relevant behavioural data, and terminology used in this context.
