Preferred feeding trees have trunks between 20 and 29 cm (7.9 and 11.4 in) in
diameter (Yoneda 1990). Lower strata, including those close to the ground, are
sometimes used for feeding but the species is frequently and most often found in
higher forest strata. When
sympatric
with other primates, howlers prefer higher
strata than the other species in the habitat (Soini 1986; Yoneda 1988; Peres
1993). Finally, red howlers can live in very small forest patches and secondary
growth (Hernández-Camacho & Cooper 1976). The altitudinal limit of
the red howler distribution is 3200 m (10498.7 ft) in the central Andes
(Hernández-Camacho & Cooper 1976).
