A Historical Reassessment of the Authorship Year of Brachyteles arachnoides (Primates: Atelidae). [PDF]
Key historical milestones in the taxonomy of Brachyteles arachnoides. It begins with Browne's (1756) early depiction of Simia 2, “The Four‐fingered Monkey”, in Jamaica, followed by Edwards' (1764) account of a brown four‐fingered monkey in the streets of London.

To investigate the distribution of LINE-1 repeat sequences, a LINE-1 probe was Fluorescence In Situ Hybridized (FISH) on the chromosomes of Ateles geoffroyi and Ateles fusciceps (Atelidae); a LINE-1 probe was also mapped on Cebuella pygmaea (Cebidae ...

Plant Diversity in the Diet of Costa Rican Primates in Contrasting Habitats: A Meta-Analysis
In human-modified tropical landscapes, the survival of arboreal vertebrates, particularly primates, depends on their plant dietary diversity. Here, we assess the diversity of plants included in the diet of Costa Rican non-human primates, CR-NHP (i.e ...

Phylogenetic inferences of Atelinae (Platyrrhini) based on multi-directional chromosome painting in Brachyteles arachnoides, Ateles paniscus paniscus and Ateles b. marginatus [PDF]
We performed multi-directional chromosome painting in a comparative cytogenetic study of the three Atelinae species Brachyteles arachnoides, Ateles paniscus paniscus and Ateles belzebuth marginatus, in order to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships ...

Behavioural contagion in wild spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi)
Abstract Behavioural contagion is a widespread phenomenon in animal species, which is thought to promote coordination and group cohesion. Among non-human primates, however, evidence of behavioural contagion is currently limited to few Catarrhine species.

Feeding in Forest Chimpanzees: Do Food Type and Canopy Location Predict Positional Behavior? [PDF]
Ngogo chimpanzees from Kibale National Park, Uganda use versatile postures, like suspension, more when eating leaves than other foods. However, in the terminal canopy, eating fruit is most associated with versatility. Food type and availability, in different combinations, produce similar behaviors.

Numerical cognition in black-handed spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi)
Evaluamos dos aspectos de la cognición numérica en un grupo de nueve monos araña en cautiverio (Ateles geoffroyi). Se utilizaron placas de Petri con cantidades variables de alimentos para evaluar la discriminación de cantidades relativas, y se utilizaron cajas equipadas con tarjetas punteadas para evaluar la discriminación de números discretos con ...

Sleeping-tree fidelity of the spider monkey shapes community-level seed-rain patterns in continuous and fragmented rain forests [PDF]
Repeated use of sleeping trees (STs) by frugivores promotes the deposition and aggregation of copious amounts of seed, thus having key implications for seed dispersal and forest regeneration. Seed-rain patterns produced by this behaviour likely depend on
