Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...

Cross-fostering between two species of marmosets (Callithrix jacchus and Callithrix penicillata) [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Biologia, 1998
Cross-fostering technique can be defined as adoption of infants by adults of other species. This phenomenon is poorly investigated because very young animals have few opportunities to interact peacefully with non-conspecific adults, either in captivity or in natural conditions.

Taxon, Arboreality, Sex, and Season—Factors Influencing Gastrointestinal Parasite Occurrence in Zoo‐Housed Non‐Human Primates

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

Comparison of musculoskeletal networks of the primate forelimb [PDF]

, 2017
Anatomical network analysis is a framework for quantitatively characterizing the topological organization of anatomical structures, thus providing a way to compare structural integration and modularity among species.

The MacBrain Resource Center (MBRC) rhesus macaque embryonic brain histology datasets

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We introduce the MacBrain Resource Center (MBRC) Collections of rhesus macaque embryonic brain tissue. Here, we illustrate histo‐ and immunohistology from our dynamically growing Collection 6, which currently contains >10,000 zoomable and downloadable images from n = 14 male and female embryos from early to late in gestation.

Fetal malformation in a marmoset (Callithrix jacchus): case report

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2014
Callithrix jacchus is a neotropical primate adaptable in captivity. Colonies can be easily established in a short time and at low cost compared to other species of larger primates, which are normally used in laboratory.

Vector-borne transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi among captive Neotropical primates in a Brazilian zoo [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Neotropical primates are important sylvatic hosts of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease. Infection is often subclinical, but severe disease has been described in both free-ranging and captive primates.

Labiolingual thickness and cross‐sectional area in callitrichid incisors

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Many primates gouge to extract gums or saps from trees as part of their diet. Gouging callitrichid monkeys are characterized by lower incisors that are labiolingually thicker than non‐gougers, however, their incisors are not any larger in cross‐section. This difference may provide key insight into the gouging behavior of fossil primates.

Pharmacokinetics of a Single Subcutaneous Extended‐Release Buprenorphine (Ethiqa XR) in Healthy Beagles

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics of an extended‐release buprenorphine formulation (Ethiqa XR) in dogs and explored potential sex differences. Twelve healthy intact beagles (6 males and 6 females) received a single subcutaneous injection of Ethiqa XR (0.2 mg/kg).

An evaluation of the bryophyte flora of the Azores [PDF]

, 2005
The diversity of bryophytes on the different islands of the Azores varies much between 104 and 324 species. Attempts have been made to explain the heterogenity of the bryoflora. There is a correlation between species numbers and age of the islands in the
