Invalidation of taxa within the silvery wooly monkey ( Lagothrix lagothricha poeppigii , Atelidae, Primates)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2020
The systematics of the Humboldt's wooly monkeys (L. lagothricha; Atelidae) is essential to preserve this Neotropical primate species. Traditionally, four morphological subspecies have been described, which recently have been molecularly confirmed. However, no population genetics studies have been carried out throughout the geographical distribution of ...

Phylogenetic relationships, population demography, and species delimitation of the Alouatta belzebul species complex (Atelidae: Alouattinae)

Primates, 2021
Howler monkeys (genus Alouatta) exhibit the most extensive distribution among platyrrhines, comprising Mesoamerican and South American species groups, with the South American group including the Brazilian endemic A. belzebul species complex encompassing A. belzebul, A. discolor, and A. ululata.

Ecogeographical variation in skull morphometry of howler monkeys (Primates: Atelidae)

Zoologischer Anzeiger - A Journal of Comparative Zoology, 2014
Abstract Our aim is to identify ecomorphological adaptations in the skull shape of the South American howler monkeys (species of the genus Alouatta , Lacepede, 1799 , Primates, Atelidae). Since Alouatta is relatively homogenous in feeding ecology, we expect skull shape variation to be relatively conservative across species.

Contrasting Rates of LINE-1 Amplification among New World Primates of the Atelidae Family

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2018
LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposons constitute the dominant category of transposons in mammalian genomes. L1 elements are active in the vast majority of mammals, and only a few cases of L1 extinction have been documented. The only possible case of extinction in primates was suggested for South American spider monkeys.

Titi monkeys (Callicebus spp., Atelidae: Platyrrhini) in the Brazilian state of Rondônia

Primates, 2000
Five species of titi monkey (Callicebus brunneus, Callicebus caligatus Callicebus cinerascens, Callicebus donacophilus, andCallicebus moloch) were recorded in surveys of primate populations at 26 sites throughout the Brazilian state of Rondonia. The distribution of the two species,C. cinerascens andC.

Cranial and endocranial diversity in extant and fossil atelids (Platyrrhini: Atelidae): A geometric morphometric study

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2019
AbstractObjectivesPlatyrrhines constitute a diverse clade, with the modern Atelidae exhibiting the most variation in cranial and endocast morphology. The processes responsible for this diversification are not well understood. Here, we present a geometric morphometric study describing variation in cranial and endocranial shape of 14 species of Alouatta,

Desmoplastic Ameloblastoma in a Specimen of Alouatta caraya (Primates, Atelidae) From Northeastern Argentina

Journal of Medical Primatology
ABSTRACTDifferent studies have indicated that there is a high prevalence of neoplasms in nonhuman primates; however, in Platyrrhini species, and especially in South American species, the available information is very scarce. The black howler monkey (Alouatta caraya) is the most widely distributed species in northeastern Argentina. In this contribution,
