Journal of Biological Research, 2022 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
Diversity, 2023 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 ...

A Historical Reassessment of the Authorship Year of Brachyteles arachnoides (Primates: Atelidae) [PDF]
Am J PrimatolKey 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.

Phylogenetic inferences of Atelinae (Platyrrhini) based on multi-directional chromosome painting in Brachyteles arachnoides, Ateles paniscus paniscus and Ateles b. marginatus [PDF]
, 2005 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)
, 2023 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.

Numerical cognition in black-handed spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi)
Behavioural Processes, 2022 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]
, 2015 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

Beyond the Canopy: Social Play Behavior in Wild Spider Monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) [PDF]
International Journal of PrimatologyAbstractPlay is a multifunctional behavior that may confer different advantages depending on the context, the species, sex, and age of the players. Despite numerous studies of social play in primates, we know little about this behavior in platyrrhines.

Incisor cross-sectional area at the cementoenamel junction correlates with an increased reliance on frugivory in anthropoid primates. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract Diet is one of a limited set of key ecological parameters defining primate species. A detailed understanding of dental functional correlates with primate diet is a key component for accurate dietary inference in fossil primates. Although considerable effort has been devoted to understanding post‐canine dental function, incisor function remains
