The healthy function of the gastrointestinal system is influenced by changes in the microbiota and the adaptability of the host to different habitat conditions and food availability. We isolated and identified 64 bacterial morphospecies from rectal swabs from five captive black howler monkeys (CM) and 15 wild individuals (WM) from groups living in fragments with different compositions and vegetation structures (height, density, canopy width) in flooded and non-flooded areas. Low microbial diversity in CM and WM from the flooded area was observed while in WM from the non-flooded area, there was a higher microbial diversity and evenness. Free-ranging monkeys from different areas showed a significant difference in the replacement of morphospecies of gut microbiota (p = 0.0006); however, the bacterial communities are not differentiated as particular entities. The intestinal microbial community can be an indicator of howler monkeys’ health and habitat quality. The change in the composition of the plant community into small landscape scales, as well as fragmentation and natural heterogeneity of the landscape, can affect the intestinal microbial community of howler monkeys.

La función saludable del sistema gastrointestinal está influenciada por cambios en la microbiota y la adaptabilidad del huésped a diferentes condiciones de hábitat y disponibilidad de alimentos. Aislamos e identificamos 64 morfoespecies bacterianas de hisopos rectales de cinco monos aulladores negros cautivos (CM) y 15 individuos silvestres (WM) de grupos que viven en fragmentos con diferente composición y estructura de vegetación (altura, densidad, ancho del dosel) en zonas inundadas y no inundadas. Observamos una baja diversidad microbiana en CM y WM del área inundada, mientras que los WM del área no inundada tuvieron mayor diversidad y equitatividad. Los monos silvestres de las diferentes áreas mostraron una diferencia significativa en el reemplazo de morfoespecies de la microbiota intestinal (p = 0,0006); sin embargo, las comunidades bacterianas no se diferencian como entidades particulares. La comunidad microbiana intestinal puede ser un indicador de la salud y la calidad del hábitat de los monos aulladores. El cambio en la composición de la comunidad vegetal a pequeñas escalas de paisaje, así como la fragmentación y heterogeneidad natural del paisaje, pueden afectar la comunidad microbiana intestinal de los monos aulladores.
