Evidence of strong stabilizing effects on the evolution of boreoeutherian (Mammalia) dental proportions. [PDF]

, 2019
The dentition is an extremely important organ in mammals with variation in timing and sequence of eruption, crown morphology, and tooth size enabling a range of behavioral, dietary, and functional adaptations across the class.

To be or Not to be Hybrids? A Case‐Study in an Allochthonous Population Involving Illegal Introductions of the Endangered Golden‐Headed and Golden Lion Tamarins

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 1, January 2026.
Genetic analyses of an allochthonous population of Leontopithecus, illegally introduced into an area of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest in Rio de Janeiro, did not detect signs of hybridization. This data provides crucial information to support conservation efforts and prevent new threats to the endangered lion tamarins. ABSTRACT Allochthonous species can

Energetic costs of reproduction in female northern muriquis, Brachyteles hypoxanthus (Primates: Platyrrinhi: Atelidae) [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Zoologia, 2008
Infant care is known to impose high energetic costs on female primates because in addition to lactation, most primate mothers also provide transport for their offspring. Many studies have documented the high energetic costs of lactation, but less is known about energetic costs of infant carrying and their effects on the recovery of maternal physical ...

Neopterin as a Tool for Primate Ecoimmunology: Current Knowledge, Practical Application, and New Directions From Captivity to the Wild

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 10, October 2025.
Neopterin is a sensitive and specific biomarker of intracellular pathogen infection and chronic inflammation, and affected by environmental, life‐history, and sex‐contextual factors. This review offers best‐practice guidelines and practical advice on sample collection, storage, and analysis in primates when used for ecoimmunological conservation and ...

Successful treatment of Trypanoxyuris sp. infection in naturally infected southern brown-howlers (Alouatta guariba clamitans)

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Southern brown-howler monkeys (Alouatta guariba clamitans) may harbor Trypanoxyuris sp., a pinworm parasite with documented fatal consequences in this species. Despite this risk, effective treatment protocols remain unclear.

Conducta alimentaria del mono aullador rojo (Alouatta seniculus: Primates, Atelidae) en un bosque montano en Neira, Caldas, Colombia

Mammalogy Notes
La degradación de los bosques por actividades antrópicas reduce el hábitat y la disponibilidad de recursos para los primates. Este estudio preliminar presenta el patrón de alimentación de un grupo de monos aulladores rojos (Alouatta seniculus, Primates:

Modeling lineage and phenotypic diversification in the New World monkey (Platyrrhini, Primates) radiation [PDF]

, 2013
Adaptive radiations that have taken place in the distant past can now be more thoroughly studied with the availability of large molecular phylogenies and comparative data drawn from extant and fossil species.

Wild Encounters: Analyzing Human–Animal Interactions in British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums Facilities

Zoo Biology, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 461-473, September/October 2025.
We investigated the quantity and diversity of animal–visitor interactions in BIAZA‐accredited facilities, finding 740 opportunities for interactions across a range of contexts including walkthroughs and handling. Meet and greets were the most offered and were influenced by the number of individual animals, cost of interaction, and animal popularity ...

Atlantic mammal traits: a dataset of morphological traits of mammals in the atlantic forest of south America [PDF]

, 2018
Measures of traits are the basis of functional biological diversity. Numerous works consider mean species-level measures of traits while ignoring individual variance within species.

Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the genomes and chromosomes of spider monkeys (Primates: Atelidae) [PDF]

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016
Heterochromatin distribution and chromosomal rearrangements have been proposed as the main sources of karyotype differences among species of Neotropical primates. This variability suggests that there could be differences at other smaller-scale levels of DNA organization as well.
