Effect of polymorphic colour vision for fruit detection in the spider monkey Ateles geoffroyi, and its implications for the maintenance of polymorphic colour vision in platyrrhine monkeys [PDF]
, 2004 Most platyrrhine monkeys have an X-linked tri-allelic polymorphism for medium and long wavelength (M/L) sensitive cone photopigments. These pigments' sensitivity maxima (λmax) range from 535 to 562 nm.

Dental functional morphology predicts the scaling of chewing rate in mammals [PDF]
, 2018 How food intake and mastication scale to satisfy the metabolic needs of mammals has been the subject of considerable scientific debate. Existing theory suggests that the negative allometric scaling of metabolic rate with body mass is compensated by a ...

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 2, February 2025.Results of redundancy analysis and variation partitioning reveal that phylogeny influences quadrupedal kinematics more strongly than do substrate characteristics in platyrrhines moving in their natural habitat. Callitrichines are maximally divergent from other taxa due to their preference for asymmetrical gaits, higher speeds and higher stride ...

Gastrointestinal parasites in captive and free-ranging Cebus albifrons in the Western Amazon, Ecuador [PDF]
, 2017 Currently, there is a lack of surveys that report the occurrence of gastrointestinal parasites in the white-headed capuchin monkey (Cebus albifrons). We therefore assessed the presence and richness (= number of different parasite genera) of parasites in ...

Chewing on the trees: Constraintsand adaptation in the evolution of the primate mandible [PDF]
, 2015 Chewing on different food types is a demanding biological function. The classic assumption in studying the shape of feeding apparatuses is that animals are what they eat, meaning that adaptation to different food items accounts for most of their ...

The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 12, Page 3850-3869, December 2024.Abstract Humboldt's woolly monkey (Lagothrix lagortricha) is a ceboid primate that more frequently engages in plantigrade quadrupedalism (~89%) but is, like most other members of the subfamily Atelinae, capable of suspensory postures and “tail assisted” brachiation.
