New World monkeys: distribution and origin of South American monkeys [PDF]
Majmuni Novog svijeta (Platyrrhini) primati su koji žive u tropskim šumama Južne i Srednje Amerike. Od majmuna Starog svijeta (Catarrhini) razlikuju se anatomijom i načinom života. Smatra se da su se ove dvije linije majmuna odvojile prije oko 35 mil.
