Abstract
First paragraph: Defining primate groups has been the focus of considerable effort for at least the last 75 years (Carpenter 1945; Imanishi 1957, 1960; Crook and Gartland 1966): my aim is not to summarise or critique that work, but rather to enthuse those who think that this question has already been answered. I consider, from the perspective of a group member: What does a group mean to the individuals within it? Do individuals have choice in grouping? Why and how has an individual chosen its particular group at any moment in time?
