Primates and Their Pinworm Parasites: The Cameron Hypothesis Revisited J. P. H UGOT Mus´eum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Institut de Syst´ematique, FR 1541 du CNRS, Laboratoire de Zoologie des Mammif`eres et Oiseaux (Biosyst´ematique et Co´evolution chez les N´e matodes Parasites), 55, rue Buffon, 75231 Paris cedex 05, France; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract.— A morphologically based cladistic analysis of the Enterobiinae, which includes most of the Oxyuridae parasitic in Primates, allows a reevaluation of the Cameron’s hypothesis of close coevolution with cospeciation between hosts and parasites. Each of the three genera separated in the Enterobiinae Žts with one of the suborders deŽned in Primates: Lemuricola with the Strepsirhini, Trypanoxyuris with the Platyrrhini, and Enterobius with the Catarrhini. Inside each of the three main groups, the subdivisions observed in the parasite tree also Žt with many of the subdivisions generally accepted within the Primate order. These results conŽrm the subgroups previously described in the subfamily and support Cameron’s hypothesis in its aspect of association by descent. Although the classiŽcation of the Enterobiinae generally closely underlines the classiŽcation of Primates, several discordances also are observed. These are discussed case by case, with use of computed reconstruction scenarios. Given that the occurrences of the same pinworm species as a parasite for several congenerichost species is not the generalized pattern,and given that several occurrences also are observed in which the speciations of the parasites describe a more complex network, Cameron’s hypothesis of a slower rhythm of speciation in the parasites can be considered partly refuted. The presence of two genera parasitic on squirrels in a family that contains primarily primate parasites also is discussed. The cladistic analysis does not support close relationships between the squirrel parasites and suggests an early separation from the Enterobiinae for the Žrst (Xeroxyuris), and a tardy host-switching from the Platyrrhini to the squirrels for the second ( Rodentoxyuris ). [Cameron’s hypothesis; cospeciation; Enterobiinae; host/parasite coevolution; Nematoda; Oxyurid; pinworm; Primate]

Members of the parasite family Oxyuridae (Cobbold, 1864) can be found in most families and genera of primates. The pattern of distribution observed in the parasites, in which each species of parasitic nematode occurs in a speciŽc host, allowed Cameron (1929) to speculate a close correspondence between phylogenetic histories of both oxyurids and primates. Later, Sandosham (1950), Inglis (1961), and Brooks and Glen (1982), using cladistic analysis, gave additional arguments for coevolutionary relationships among primates and their oxyurid parasites. Recent redescriptions have revealed that most members of the Oxyuridae parasitic in primates share derived characters that group them in a new subfamily: the Enterobiinae (Hugot et al., 1996). The present work provides a cladistic analysis of the Enterobiinae based upon morphological characters. The hypothesis of coevolution with cospeciation between the Enterobiinae and their primate hosts is then examined. The Enterobiinae includes three

species parasitic of squirrels (in two genera). Their presence in a family that contains primarily primate parasites also is discussed.

M ATERIAL AND M ETHODS Sampling The cladistic analysis of the Enterobiinae includes 46 species of the subfamily and 2 outgroup species. Appendix 1 lists the 48 species analyzed, their speciŽc hosts, the “sources” (i.e., the documents used for description of the different parasite taxa), and the identiŽcation of the examined specimens. The outgroup includes one species belonging to a different family of the Oxyurida, the Pharyngodonidae (Ctenodactylina tunetae is a parasite of African rodents of the family Ctenodactylidae), and a second species that is an Oxyuridae not belonging to the Enterobiinae (Ingloxyuris inglisi is a parasite for Lepilemur ruŽcaudatus in Madagascar).

The general classiŽcation of the Primates follows Purvis (1995). Different classiŽcations proposed either for the Platyrrhini (Porter et al., 1997; Rosenberger, 1981, 1984; Schneider et al., 1993) or for the Strepsirhini (Jablonski, 1986; Barton et al., 1995; Yoder et al., 1996; Stanger-Hall, 1997) also are considered for discussion. The identiŽcation of the hosts follows Wilson and Reeder (1993). For the deŽnition of the Callitrichidae, I refer to Hoffstetter (1982). Analyses The cladistic analysis is based on 45 morphological characters from various organ systems (see Table 1 and Appendix 2). Character states used for this analysis have been explained in our work establishing the definition of the subfamily (Hugot et al., 1996) and are Žgured in the documents referenced as “source” in Appendix 1. For characters of the head and lateral alae, only females were considered; the characters of the head and lateral alae are roughly identical in both sexes, and consequently, introducing characters of the males would merely duplicate the phylogenetic information given by the females. Also, all the females of the taxa considered in this paper have been described, but the males are unknown for Žve of these species. Available hypotheses concerning parasitic nematode character evolution are poor and are generally based on two assumptions: (1) The morphology of larval stages can be considered “primitive” (Quentin, 1969), and (2) parasites that are speciŽc for “primitive hosts” have “primitive” character states (Chabaud and Petter, 1961). The Žrst hypothesis, which deals with the ontogenic criterion, has to be tested case by case and cannot be generalized a priori. The second hypothesis is completely subjective and cannot be considered in a cladistic analysis. For these reasons, and because I agree with Sundberg and Hylbom’s (1994:362) opinion that “the most reliable criterion for transformation series. . .[is]. . . the cladogram itself and the congruence with other characters,” I have left all characters unordered. When necessary, I have used the method proposed by Madison (1993) for coding multistate

characters. Inapplicable characters (in the sense used by Madison, 1993) were coded “-”; missing characters were coded “?” For cladistic analysis, character weights were scaled so that each character received the same total weight regardless of the number of states observed. For computation of decay indices, character weights were scaled to 1, whatever the number of their character states. Parsimony analysis was conducted with the PAUP 4.0.0d63 test version (Swofford, 1998). MACCLADE 3.07 (Maddison and Maddison, 1997) was used for data and tree handling and for computation of tree statistics. A UTODECAY 2.9.5 (Eriksson, 1996) and T REEVIEW 1.3 (Page, 1996a) were used for computation and printing of decay indices on trees. Runs were performed by heuristic search with tree bisection– reconnection (TBR) branch-swapping, addition sequence random = 1,000 replicates, MULPARS option in effect, steepest descent option not in effect, branches collapsed (creating polytomies) if maximum branch length = 0, and multistate taxa interpreted as polymorphism. Comparing host and parasite cladograms was performed by using T REEM AP 1.0b (Page, 1995). Following Page (1996b), speciation events are divided into three categories: cospeciation, duplication, and host-switch. Sorting events cover any case in which a parasite species can be expected on one host species and has not been observed. RESULTS AND D ISCUSSION Results of Cladistic Analysis The analysis gave three trees from which a strict consensus tree was computed (Fig. 1): tree length = 52.91; consistency index (CI) = 0.8551; homoplasy index (HI) = 0.1496; CI excluding uninformative characters = 0.8494; HI excluding uninformative characters = 0.1506; retention index = 0.9407; rescaled consistency index = 0.8044. The consensus tree is fully resolved except for the trichotomies including Paraoxyuronema lagothricis, P. duplicidens and the adjacent clades, Colobenterobius longispiculum, and C. pitheci and the adjacent clades.

assembles the parasites of Homo and Pan, the second the parasites of the Cercopithecidae (Macaca, Cercopithecus , and Papio) with the parasites of Gorilla and Pongo. Subgenus Colobenterobius appears to be monophyletic and can be subdivided into 2 clades: The Žrst assembles the African species and the second the Asian species. In the genus Trypanoxyuris, the subgenera Hapaloxyuris, Rodentoxyuris, and Paraoxyuronema appear as monophyletic groups, and subgenus Trypanoxyuris is subdivided into different clades. Trypanoxyuris 1 is associated with Hapaloxyuris and Rodentoxyuris and groups the parasites of the Cebidae (Saimiri and Cebus); Trypanoxyuris 2 is a paraphyletic group associated with Paraoxyuronema. Synapomorphic characters and decay indices, as represented on Figure 1, show that the monophyly of the Enterobiinae and each of its major subgroups is robust. However, the basal relationship among Xeroxyuris, Lemuricola, and Enterobius/Trypanoxyuris, is weakly supported by the decay index (0). In the following, I will consider: (1) explanations for the presence of squirrel parasites in the Enterobiinae, (2) the consistency of Cameron’s hypothesis, and (3) which different scenarios can be proposed to explain the discordances of host and parasite phylogenies within each of the 3 major monophyletic groups. What Can Explain the Presence of Squirrel Parasites in the Enterobiinae? Host and parasite distributions.—Squirrel parasites are classiŽed into two genera. Xeroxyuris (Hugot, 1995) has a single species whose host, Xerus inauris, is a ground squirrel living in the dry steppes of southern Africa. The type species of the second taxon was Žrst described as Enterobius sciuri (Cameron, 1932) from Sciurus carolinensis in Scotland. Later, Kreiss (1944), described as a new species a pinworm parasite collected in Sciurus vulgaris in Switzerland, which ignoring Cameron’s work, he also named Enterobius sciuri (sic). Since then “Enterobius sciuri” has been recorded from S. vulgaris, in Switzerland (H orning, ¨ 1963), Czechoslovakia (Erhardova, 1958; Tenora, 1967), France (Quentin and Tenora,

527

1975; Hugot, 1984a), Britain (Keymer, 1983; Hugot, 1984a), Spain (Rocamora et al., 1978; Hugot and Feliu, 1990), and Ukraine (Sharpilo and Lugovaya, 1984). Specimens identiŽed as “E. sciuri” also were recorded from the North American squirrels: Glaucomys volans (Rausch and Tiner, 1948; Eckerlin, 1975), Sciurus niger (Rausch and Tiner, 1948), S. carolinensis (Davidson, 1976), and Sciurus aberti (Patrick and Wilson, 1995). In 1975, Quentin and Tenora classiŽed “E. sciuri” sensu lato in a new genus, Rodentoxyuris. In an earlier work (Hugot, 1984a), I showed that: (1) the European specimens, described from S. vulgaris in different localities, must be identiŽed with the type species described in Britain from S. carolinensis by Cameron (1932); (2) the specimens collected in different hosts in North America are a different species, Rodentoxyuris bicristata, described from specimens collected in Glaucomys sabrinus; and (3) Rodentoxyuris could be classiŽed as a subgenus of Trypanoxyuris (Vevers, 1923). Sciurus vulgaris is found in the palearctic region, from Spain to Kamchatka. In America the respective ranges of S. niger, S. carolinensis, and G. volans are widely overlapping, from the East Coast west to the Rocky Mountains and north to the Canadian border; southward, the three species approach the Mexican boundary. In addition, G. volans has montane populations scattered from Mexico to Honduras. Glaucomys sabrinus has a very different range extending from Alaska and Canada, to the U.S. Northwest. The range of G. sabrinus is overlapping with the respective ranges of the other three American squirrels around the Great Lakes and in the Appalachian Mountains. Sciurus aberti has a very restricted range divided into two nonconuent areas: The Žrst extends through a part of Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, and Arizona, and the second is in northern Mexico. Phylogeny of the hosts.—The phylogenetic relationships between Glaucomys spp. and the other squirrels still are debated. Glaucomys has been proposed to be classiŽed together with all the other ying squirrels in a different subfamily within the Sciuridae; this supposition that the ying squirrels are

528

SYSTEMATIC BIOLOGY

a monophyletic group has been supported by Johnson-Murray (1977) and Thorington (1984). Conversely, some authors have suggested that Glaucomys could be more closely related to other holarctic squirrels, particularly to the Sciurini (Gorgas, 1967). These different hypothesis can be represented by two different topologies: (1) Xerus as the sister group of Sciurus spp. + Glaucomys spp., and (2) Glaucomys spp. as the sister group of Sciurus spp. + Xerus. Investigating evolutionary scenarios.— Figure 2 proposes different scenarios reconstructed using T REE M AP (Page, 1995). Figures 2a and b use topology 1 as host tree and suppose that the parasites switched from the Platyrrhini to the common ancestor of Glaucomys spp. and Sciurus spp. Figure 2a hypothezises a duplication (speciation of a parasite without speciation of its host) after the initial host switch from the Platyrrhini. This duplication produces two independent lineages, the Žrst developing with the North American squirrels and missing S. vulgaris (one sorting event), and the second having S. vulgaris as primitive host and missing the others (two sorting events). T REE M AP also gives an alternative solution (not illustrated) to scenario 2a, i.e., two independent host-switching events from the Platyrrhini, giving birth to R. sciuri and R. bicristata, respectively. Figure 2b describes a parallel evolution between Rodentoxyuris and the Glaucomys/Sciurus lineage, interrupted on the Sciurus branch, which is missing the Nearctic Sciurus spp. (sorting event). The presence of R. bicristata on the Nearctic Sciurus spp. results from a hostswitch from Glaucomys spp. Using topology 2 gave the same reconstructions of the parasite tree but with an initial host-switching on the common ancestor of Xerus, Sciurus and Glaucomys. Figure 2c, using topology 1, and Figure 2d, using topology 2, describe a different reconstruction of the parasite tree: an initial host switch from the Platyrrhini to the common ancestor of Sciurus spp., with which Rodentoxyuris spp. evolve in parallel; and later, a second host switch from the Nearctic Sciurus spp. to Glaucomys spp. All the scenarios require host-switching of R. sciuri from S. vulgaris to S. carolinensis.

VOL. 48

Discussion.—Two a priori hypothesis could possibly be proposed to explain the distribution of the Enterobiinae parasitic in squirrels: (1) At the beginning of their respective radiation, squirrels and primates shared common parasites that coevolved with their hosts. These parasites were successful in primates and became established in most of their descendants. They generally aborted in squirrels (in which other pinworm families were successful; see Hugot, 1982), and thus the contemporary species must be considered relictual. (2) The squirrel parasites result from several independent host-switching events. All the scenarios of Figure 2 contradict the Žrst proposition. If Xeroxyuris could be interpreted as relictual on an ancient squirrel lineage, the appearance of Rodentoxyuris is independent and is the result of one or several host switches, from the Platyrrhini to the squirrels. In addition, the position of Rodentoxyuris on the cladogram implies that the parasites switched onto the squirrels after the Enterobiinae had differentiated into several lineages within the Platyrrhini. Because during most of the Tertiary the Platyrrhini were isolated in South America, and squirrels are presumed not to have been present in the Neotropics during the period, this implies that the contact between the Neotropical monkeys and the squirrels occurred after a land connection was reestablished between North and South America. Therefore, the proposed reconstructions of evolutionary scenarios have to be compatible with host-switching from the Platyrrhini to the holarctic squirrels, chronologically situated in the latest part of the Tertiary. Xeroxyuris and Rodentoxyuris result from independent evolutionary events; Rodentoxyuris results from one or two initial hostswitchings from the Platyrrhini to the common ancestor of either (1) Sciurus spp., or (2) Glaucomys spp. and Sciurus spp., or (3) Xerus, Glaucomys spp., and Sciurus spp. Because Xerus is known only from Africa, the scenarios that propose host-switching from the Platyrrhini to the common ancestor of Xerus, Sciurus, and Glaucomys are unlikely; this concerns all scenarios using topology 2 except scenario 2d. To be reliable, scenarios

F IGUR E 2. Different scenarios explaining the presence of squirrel parasites in the Enterobiinae. Xeroxyuris; R. = Rodentoxyuris .

2a and 2b require that the common ancestor of Glaucomys and Sciurus was still living in America during the latest part of the Tertiary. This supposes close phyletic relationships between these two genera and conicts with the hypothesis of monophyly of the ying squirrels. The reconstruction of the parasite tree proposed by scenarios 2c and 2d is independent of which phyletic relationships can be hypothesized between Sciurus and Glaucomys. To be valid, this re-

construction requires two assumptions: (1) a Žrst host-switching from the Platyrrhini to the ancestor of Sciurus spp., and (2) a later host-switching from Sciurus to Glaucomys. Because Sciurus probably migrated into the Neotropics during the late Tertiary, the Žrst assumption seems valid. Considering the present distribution of Glaucomys spp. and Sciurus spp. in the Nearctic, the second assumption also is acceptable. Consequently, the scenario represented on Figures 2c and

530

SYSTEMATIC BIOLOGY

2d looks most reliable. Whatever the scenario considered, the Neotropical squirrels probably were involved in the story. Unfortunately, we have absolutely no data concerning the presence of pinworms in these hosts. Sciurus carolinensis, the type host of the European species, is a native from North America and was introduced recently into the United Kingdom. The origin of the parasites collected in S. vulgaris was questioned by Sandosham (1950:199), who concluded that “because the North American Sciurus carolinensis has been introduced in the British Isles since 1889 , . . . Sciurus vulgaris has become infected in recent years by S. carolinensis which, in turn, brought the infection from the New World.“ This conclusion looks questionable because S. carolinensis has never been recorded from the European continent, whereas the European parasite has been recorded from S. vulgaris in numerous localities from western and central Europe and especially in Spain. Furthermore, Spain is known to be an area of endemism for its parasitic fauna (Hugot and Feliu, 1990). This suggests that S. vulgaris is the earliest host for R. sciuri and that S. carolinensis was infested when introduced in Britain. This last assumption is supported by all the scenarios of Figure 2. The Cameron Hypothesis Revisited Cameron (1929:180–181) Žrst noticed that The examination of the forms. . .[of pinworms found in Primates]. . .suggests that one species restricts itself to one genus of host rather than to one species; in other words the evolution of the parasite is slower than that of the primate. It would seem legitimate to assume, . . .that the parasite has evolved with the host. If one assumes the existence of a preenterobius form in the pre-simian host, then the modiŽcations of the parasite should accompany the generic difference of the host. One will expect to Žnd forms more closely related to the human parasite in apes, while those in old world monkeys would be closer to E. vermicularis than those in new world monkeys and the lorises but not so close as in apes.

Therefore, the Cameron hypothesis includes two different claims: Žrst, Primates and their pinworms are an example of “association by descent,” and the phylogeny of the parasites parallels the phylogeny of the hosts; second,

VOL. 48

because the parasites speciated more slowly that the primates, a single parasite species has to be recorded for each host genus. Figure 3 shows that the 3 genera separated in the Enterobiinae Žt with one of the suborders deŽned in Primates: Lemuricola comprises the parasites of the Strepsirhini, Trypanoxyuris the parasites of the Platyrrhini, and Enterobius the parasites of the Catarrhini. In addition, Trypanoxyuris and Enterobius appear as sister groups on the cladogram, and the distribution of the Enterobiinae Žt with Hoffstetter (1982) subdivisions: Strepsirhini and Haplorhini (= Platyrrhini + Catarrhini). Inside each of the three main groups, the subdivisions observed in the parasite tree also Žt with many of the subdivisions generally accepted within the primate order. Hapaloxyuris Žts with the Callitrichidae and Paraoxyuronema with the Atelidae. Colobenterobius comprises all the parasites of the Colobidae and parallels the host tree in its subdivision into two clades, which Žt, respectively, with the African or the Asian species. Subgenus Lemuricola comprises the parasites of the Cheirogaleidae, and the parasites of the other lemurs are a monophyletic group (including Madoxyuris and Biguetius). The parasites of the Cercopithecidae are classiŽed in a monophyletic group, as are the parasites of humans and chimpanzees. Thus, the results from the cladistic analysis of the Enterobiinae generally support the Cameron hypothesis in its assertion of “association by descent,” and the Žrst claim can be considered validated. Given that in only seven occurrences can it be inferred the same pinworm species is a parasite for several congeneric host species (Fig. 3), and that the correspondence of “one parasite species per host species” appears to be the generalized pattern (28 occurrences), Cameron’s second claim “one (parasite) species restricts itself to one genus of host,” cannot be considered validated. Furthermore, in Žve occurrences two closely related parasite species parasitize a single host species, and in four occurrences each one of two congeneric host species is parasitized by its speciŽc pinworm. These examples refute Cameron’s second claim. Because our knowledge of the distribution of the Entero-

biinae among the primate order cannot be considered complete, it is not implausible that further investigations would reveal that the differentiation of the parasites mimics the zoogeography of the hosts with more detail that we currently know. Figure 3 also indicates several disagreements between host and parasite distribution. In the following section, they are considered group by group. The Lemuricola/Strepsirhini Lineages Host and parasite phylogenies.—Some authors (Jablonski, 1986; Andrews, 1988) have proposed grouping the cheirogaleids with the Afro-Asian lorises, thereby making Malagasy primates paraphyletic. Recent

works distinguish an Afro-Asian loris group and a Malagasy lemur group and agree with Malagasy primate monophyly (Barton et al., 1995; Purvis, 1995; Yoder et al., 1996; Stanger-Hall, 1997); however, they disagree on the relationships within their subgroups. Phylogenetic debate centers on the Malagasy mouse, dwarf lemur (Cheirogaleidae), and aye-aye (Daubentoniidae), but the relationships between Hapalemur, Propithecus, and Eulemur also are questioned (Fig. 4). The parasite tree comprises the parasites of the Cheirogaleidae and the other Malagasy lemurs, respectively, in two monophyletic groups separated by the parasite of the loris: Protenterobius nycticebi (Fig. 1).

developing with all the others and missing the Cheirogaleidae (one sorting event). Scenario 5b hypothezises an initial cospeciation giving birth to a lemur and a loris parasite lineages. The Žrst lineage survives in the Cheirogaleidae and misses the others, whereas the parasites of the other Malagasy primates derive from host-switching from the loris lineage onto the common ancestor of the lemurs. T REE M AP also gives an alter-

native solution (not illustrated) to scenario 5b, in which the initial cospeciation occurs on the common ancestor of the lemurs and cheirogaleids, with the parasite of Nycticebus coucang resulting from host-switching from the lemur branch. Using the other host trees of Figure 4 gives the same three events; the differences appear in the upper parts of the respective reconstructions.

and M. baltazardi on the same host (Eulemur fulvus) is explained by a duplication. Discussion. —Concerning the topology of the Lemuricola clade, two explanations can be proposed: (1) The distribution of hosts and parasites results from close coevolution with cospeciation, and the parasite tree mirrors the phylogeny of the hosts; this supposes that Malagasy primates are paraphyletic. (2) The parasite tree does not strictly match primate phylogeny, and the classiŽcation of Protenterobius must be explained in a different way. Because the best scenarios are found when mapping the parasite tree on the host trees resulting from the most recent studies (Yoder et al., 1996; Stanger-Hall, 1997) and because these works, using either molecular or morphological data, have given very strong arguments for Malagasy primate monophyly, the Žrst hypothesis probably can be refuted. Those scenarios involving a host switch (Fig. 5b or its alternative) require that Nycticebus (or its ancestor) and the common ancestor of Daubentonia, Propithecus, Hapalemur, and Eulemur had to be sympatric after the phylogenetic separation of their respective lineages. Only scenario 5a allows an early and deŽnitive separation of the lemurs and lorises. Therefore I consider that scenario the most reliable. The Trypanoxyuris/Platyrrhini Lineages Host and parasite phylogenies.—Separate independent hypotheses of the phylogenetic relationships among the Platyrrhini monkeys have been produced, based either on morphological or molecular data (Rosenberger, 1981, 1984; Schneider et al., 1993; Purvis, 1995; Porter et al., 1997), but the results are generally conicting and the phylogeny of the group is still debated. Four several phylogenetic hypotheses for the Platyrrhini are represented on Figure 6. All these trees strongly support the monophyly of three main groups: (1) the Atelidae/Alouattidae (Alouatta, Brachyteles, Lagothrix, and Ateles), (2) the Pitheciidae (Cacajao, Chiropotes, and Pithecia), (3) the Callitrichidae (Cebuella, Callithrix, Saguinus, Leontopithecus, and Callimico), and (4) the sis-

ter grouping of Cebus and Saimiri in a family Cebidae. They conict in how the main groups relate to each other and to Aotus and Callicebus. However, only the Schneider tree (Fig. 6b) disagrees with a close relationship between the Atelidae/Alouatta and the Pitheciidale; the Purvis tree (Fig. 6c) proposes a sister grouping for these groups. All the trees of Figure 6, excluding the Porter tree (Fig. 6d), agree in the sister grouping of the Callitrichidae and the Cebidae. The cladistic analysis of the pinworms agrees with all of the main groups deŽned above and with the sister grouping of the Callitrichidaewith the Cebidae; the parasite tree also agrees with the Purvis tree in grouping the Atelidae/Alouatta and the Pitheciidae in sister groups. The respective positions of Aotus and Callicebus are the most variable; only the Rosenberger tree (Fig. 6a) and the Purvis tree (Fig. 6c) propose their association in a monophyletic group. All trees, excluding the Rosenberger tree and the parasite tree, agree with a close association of Aotus with the Cebidae/Callitrichidae. Investigating evolutionary scenarios.— Using successively the different hypotheses represented on Figure 6 as host trees, I performed exact search routines, using T REE M AP. The results are presented in Table 3 and Figure 7. Discussion. —The reconstruction admitting the maximum number of cospeciations (5) and the lowest number of other evolutionary events (1) is obtained by using the Purvis (1995) tree (Fig. 7c). This scenario suggests an initially close coevolution with cospeciation between the parasites and a host clade grouping the Callitrichidae/Cebidae and Aotus/Callicebus and, later, host switching from Callicebus to the common ancestor of the Atelidae/Alouatta + the Pitheciidae, followed by cospeciation within this second group. Because this scenario implies a very asymmetric timing of diversiŽcation within the Platyrrhini, this reconstruction is unlikely. The other reconstructions represented on Figure 7 admit 4 cospeciations only. The reconstructions obtained by using either the Rosenberg (1981, 1984) or the Porter (1997) trees (Figs. 7a and

d, respectively) have the greatest number of other evolutionary events (4). Both describe a parallel evolution of the Enterobiinae and the Platyrrhini beginning with the common ancestor of the hosts, and a delayed diversiŽcation of the Atelidae/Alouatta clade. The lowest number of other evolutionary events (2) is obtained when using the Schneider (1993) tree (Fig. 7b). This last scenario implies two successive host-switchings: from Aotus, or its ancestor, to the common ancestor of a Pitheciidae/Callicebus clade, and later from the Pitheciidae to the common ancestor of the Atelidae/Alouatta clade. Again, a delayed diversiŽcation of the different hosts clades is necessary. The reconstructions of Figures 7a, b, and d, and the parasite data support those phylogenetic hypotheses of the Neotropical mon-

keys that suppose close relationships between Callicebus and the Pitheciidae. The parasite data, which support none of the published hypotheses concerning Aotus (either a close association with the Callitrichidae/Cebidae, or with genus Callicebus, or both), do not provide any help in understanding the exact position of Aotus within the Platyrrhini. The Enterobius/Catarrhini Lineages Host and parasite phylogenies.—All the most recent hypotheses concerning the phylogeny of the Catarrhini agree with the general subdivisions of the Purvis tree: Apes and human beings opposed to a monkey group subdivided into a Colobidae and a Cercopithecidae families.

group also are distinguished within the Colobidae. Within the Cercopithecidae, baboons and macaca are generally associated as sister groups and opposed to the guenons. Within the apes and humans group, the family Pongidae, in which were previously classiŽed all of the apes (Pongo, Gorilla, and

Pan), has been reduced to the single genus Pongo, because Gorilla and Pan have been demonstrated to be more closely related to Homo. Finally, several recent works have given a strong support to the sister grouping of Homo and Pan (Ruvolo, 1997). The parasite tree agrees with the distribution of

1999

HUGOT—THE CAMERON HYPOTHESIS REVISITED

the Colobidae and with the sister grouping of Homo and Pan but disagrees with the Purvis tree on three different points: (1) The association of the parasites of Gorilla and Pongo with the parasites of the cercopithecids implies that the parasites of apes are paraphyletic. (2) The association of the cercopithecid group with the parasites of human and apes distributes the monkey parasites in two monophyletic groups (together a polyphyletic group). (3) The sister grouping of Macaca and Chlorocebus parasites conict with the monophyly of Papio and Macaca. Investigating evolutionary scenarios.— When T REE M AP exact search routines were performed, opposing the Enterobius clade of the parasite tree and Purvis tree, 12 different reconstructions were found (Fig. 8), all of which gave Žve cospeciation events. One single reconstruction was found with the highest number of 11 required extra evolutionary events (Fig. 8a). The shortest were two reconstructions with six extra evolutionary events; one of these is represented in Figure 8c. Within the 12 different reconstructions found, the Žrst point of discordance described above is explained in three scenarios (Fig. 8a, b, and c). Figure 8a shows a duplication (speciation of a parasite without speciation of its host) on the common ancestor of the parasites of humans and apes and requires 3 subsequent sorting events. In Figure 8b the parasites evolve in parallel with the humans and apes but miss the Gorilla branch (1 sorting event), which requires a host-switching from Pongo toward Gorilla. Figure 8c depicts an equivalent scenario in which the humans and apes branch misses the Pongo parasite (1 sorting event)—which requires a host switch from Gorilla toward Pongo. The second point of discord mentioned above is explained either by a host-switching from either Gorilla or Pongo toward the cercopithecids (Fig. 8a, b, and c), or by 2 host switchings (not illustrated): the Žrst from either Pongo or Gorilla toward the common ancestor of Macaca and Papio, the second one toward Chlorocebus . The third point of discordance is explained by following the three different scenarios depicted in Figures 8a, b, and c. On Figure

537

8a, a duplication of the parasite occurs in the common ancestor of the cercopithecids. On Figure 8b, the evolution of the parasites parallels the host tree but misses the Macaca branch, which is explained by a host-switch from Chlorocebus toward Macaca. On Figure 8c, the parasites of Macaca and Papio have a common ancestor, and a host-switch from Macaca gives birth to the parasite of Chlorocebus. All 12 scenarios explain the presence of two different parasite species in humans by a duplication. Discussion.—Because all the different lineages recognized in the Catarrhini are supposed to be born in Africa (Hoffstetter, 1982), and because all the scenarios that explain the origin of the parasites of the cercopithecids require either that Pongo or Gorilla (or both), or their respective ancestors, were sympatric with the common ancestor of these monkeys (Figs. 8a and b) or at least with the common ancestor of the pair Macaca/Papio (Fig. 8c), the simplest hypothesis is that the evolutionary events described on Figure 8 took place in Africa. However, the association of E. lerouxi with the other four species is only weakly supported by the cladogram in Figure 1, the decay index is low, and this node is not sustained by any synapomorphy. Enterobius lerouxi is a species for which several characters are undescribed (Table 1). This means that the position of E. lerouxi on the cladogram results, in part, from the interplay between homoplasic and missing characters. Thus, the monophyly of the parasites of Gorilla, Pan, and Homo is not deŽnitively refuted by the results of the cladistic analysis. Therefore, scenario 8c, which is congruent with the monophyly of this group and requires the lowest number of extra hypotheses, looks the most acceptable. Biogeography Figure 9 superimposes the cladogram of the Enterobiinae on a world map and, for each of the main groups, summarizes the reconstructions considered the most reliable in previous discussions. The Žrst dichotomy separates a short “squirrel” African branch from a widespread radiation with Primates, resulting in (1) an early withdrawal of

the Lemuricola/Strepsirhini lineage toward Madagascar, separating from (2) the common ancestor of the Enterobius/Catarrhini and Trypanoxyuris /Platyrrhini lineages. (3) An extensive radiation of the Trypanoxyuris/Platyrrhini lineage in South America has a terminal branch extending into the Holarctic, where once again the squirrels were parasitized. (4) Enterobius/Catarrhini differentiates into several African lineages, each migrating toward Eurasia and southeast Asia, and Žnally with Enterobius and humans all around the world. In the Lemuricola/Strepsirhini lineage, the scenario that requires a duplication and three sorting events for the reconciliation of the parasite and host trees looks the most acceptable (see above). In the Enterobius/Catarrhini lineage, parallel evolution between the colobes and their parasites is strongly supported; the best explanation for the distribution of the other

parasites is a double host-switch from the African apes toward the Asiatic apes and the cercopithecids, respectively. In the Trypanoxyuris/Platyrrhini lineage, parallel evolution is inferred between the parasites and a Callitrichidae/Cebidae monophyletic group. Two successive host-switchings toward the common ancestor of a Callicebus/Pitheciidae clade, and later toward the common ancestor of the Atelidae and Alouatta, explains the evolution of the other parasites. Discussion. —The evolutionary history depicted on Figure 9 strongly suggests a Gondwanan distribution for the Enterobiinae at the beginning of their radiation, and Africa appears to be the most convincing center for their origin. This agrees with the hypothesis by Yoder et al. (1996) of an African origin for the common ancestor of lemurs and lorises, the hypothesis of an African common ances-

tor for the Catarrhini and Platyrrhini (Ciochon and Chiarelli, 1980), and the hypothesis of Africa as a center of origin for the main component lineages in the Catarrhini (Hoffstetter, 1982). All this suggests that the Enterobiinae would have accompanied the living primates since they began to disperse at the

beginning of the Tertiary. However, because squirrels are not presumed to be present in Africa before the Pleistocene (MacLaughlin, 1984), the position of Xeroxyuris as the Žrst branch of the cladogram must be questioned. Three explanations are possible: (1) We are misinterpreting the relationships be-

540

tween Xeroxyuris and the rest of the family; (2) the squirrels were present in Africa earlier than is generally accepted, despite no fossils having been found; or (3) the beginning of the radiation of the Enterobiinae must be found elsewhere and earlier, where and when primates and squirrels, or their ancestors, were sympatric—which probably means in the Northern continents. The best explanation for the distribution of Rodentoxyuris is a host-switch from the Platyrrhini to the Sciurini at the end of the Tertiary, when terrestrial connections were reestablished between North and South America. Because the European parasite, R. sciuri, is probably a native species whose speciŽc host is Sciurus vulgaris, the simplest explanation for this parasite is a parallel evolution and dispersal of Rodentoxyuris with Sciurus spp., in the Holarctic. In the Asiatic part of its range, S. vulgaris is parasitized not by Rodentoxyuris but by a different genus of pinworm, Syphabulea, which is closely related to another subfamily: the Syphaciinae. This last group extends from southeast Asia to North America and to Spain and parazites squirrels exclusively (Hugot and Feliu, 1990). In the Holarctic part of its range, Syphabulea, which is a parasite for Sciurus, Sciurotamias, Tamiasciurus, and Glaucomys spp. (Hugot, 1988), challenges Rodentoxyuris in the Sciuridae and separates the range of Rodentoxyuris into two disconnected areas. This could explain the appearance of a different species of Rodentoxyuris in the Western Palearctic. C ONCLUSION The classiŽcation of the Enterobiinae resulting from the cladistic analysis generally conŽrms the subgroups previously described in the subfamily, closely underlines the classiŽcation of the Primate order, and provides evidence supporting the Cameron (1929) hypothesis of close coevolution with cospeciation. The presence of several squirrel parasites within the Enterobiinae apparently results from two independent evolutionary events, each of which can be linked with ancient biogeographic circumstances. Thus, the existence of these parasites does

not challenge the general pattern of a parallel radiation of the living primates with their pinworm parasites. Given that the occurrence of the same pinworm species as a parasite for several congeneric host species is not the generalized pattern, Cameron’s hypothesis of a slower rhythm of speciation in the parasites is not validated. In addition, several occurrences are observed in which the speciations of the parasites parallel very closely the speciations of the hosts, such that several hypotheses of duplication are required in the different groups for reconstruction of evolutionary scenarios. This signiŽes that in several cases the evolution of the parasites strictly underlines the history of the hosts and that several different lineages of the Enterobiinae have sometimes been in competition for the same host group. These observations refute Cameron’s second hypothesis. The Enterobiinae occur in most families and numerous genera of the order Primates. However, no pinworm parasites were discovered in the following host taxa: the family Tarsiidae; the lemuriform genera Allocebus, Avahi, Indri, Lichanotus, Lemur, Phaner, and Varecia and the lorisiform genera Arctocebus, Euoticus, Galagoides, Loris, Otolemur, and Perodicticus . In the Platyrrhini is found the most complete distribution; only Leontopithecus, Cebuella, and Cacajao lack a pinworm parasite. In the Catarrhini, pinworm parasites are lacking in the cercopithecid genera Allenopithecus, Cercocebus, Cercopithecus, Erythrocebus, Lophocebus, Mandrillus, Miopithecus , and Theropithecus and in Nasalis and Pygathrix within the Colobidae. Until now no speciŽc parasites were described from family Hylobatidae, but human parasites were found in a Hylobates lar in the London zoo (Sandosham, 1950). The gaps in the distribution of the Enterobiinae throughout the Primate order probably result in part from undiscovered species; a careful examination of host specimens will certainly reveal new species.
