...Kinji Imanishi has listed four minimum conditions for a group to be a family: that incest is avoided in the group, that it is an exogamous unit, that it is included in a higher-level local society, and that economic division of labor is established between the males and females of the group. Imanishi also noted that a single-male group of gorillas meets the first three conditions above, but does not exhibit the last economic division of labor between the males and females, and called this type of social unit a familoid to distinguish it from a family. Recent research on gorilla society has revealed that females born in one group transfer to another group, but form new groups with solitary males. Therefore, this group is an exogamous unit and can be considered to have a mechanism for avoiding incest, but it has also become clear that there is severe conflict between males that are mutually exclusive, and it is necessary to keep in mind that a gorilla's local society is a collection of groups in such antagonistic relationships. ... *Some terminology explanations that mention "familoid" are listed below.
