The ecological role of the callitrichidae: A review
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1984AbstractThe marmosets and tamarins fill a unique ecological role among the anthropoid primates, one that has not been fully recognized. Many misconceptions—that they are primitive, monogamous, territorial, and squirrellike—pervade the literature. These misconceptions are largely the result of misinterpreting laboratory studies which have not been ...

A new interpretation of the social organization and mating system of the Callitrichidae [PDF]
International Journal of Primatology, 1987 Tamarins and marmosets are usually described as monogamous, or as living in extended family groups. Field research on a variety of callitrichid species shows, however, that immigration and emigration by adults are common and that groups are likely to be composed largely of unrelated adults of both sexes. Despite the number of adult females present in a

American Journal of Primatology, 1999
Cytogenetic and cytotaxonomic studies (G, C, sequential G/C, and NOR banding) were performed on 110 specimens representing the four genera of South American primates of the family Callitrichidae: Cebuella (C. pygmaea), Callithrix, groups argentata (C. argentata, C. emiliae, C. chrysoleuca, C. humeralifera, C. mauesi), and jacchus (C.

Stereology of the myocardium in two species of Callithrix (Callitrichidae, Primates)
Annals of Anatomy - Anatomischer Anzeiger, 1996The majority of studies on cardiac morphology have concentrated on Old World monkeys. Ten marmoset hearts of the genus Callithrix were studied (5 hearts of C. jacchus and 5 of C. penicillata), dissected and fixed in a 10% buffered formaldehyde solution, pH 7.2. Unbiased stereological estimates were obtained from isotropic uniform random sections of the

Habitat and the evolution of social and reproductive behavior in callitrichidae
American Journal of Primatology, 1996The numerous remarkable traits characterizing the ecology and behavior of callitrichids have inspired considerable research and discussion of the flexible mating system (cases of monogamy, polygyny, and polyandry), cooperative breeding, reproductive inhibition by dominant females, rapid reproductive rate, significance of dietary differences (gum ...

Tree‐gouging by marmosets (Primates: Callitrichidae) enhances tree turnover
Biotropica, 2020We tested whether gouging by Callithrix jacchus affects tree survival. The proportion of dead gouged trees was higher than the proportion of dead non‐gouged trees, with larger effects on smaller trees.

Cranial and mandibular morphometry inLeontopithecuslesson, 1840 (Callitrichidae, Primates)
American Journal of Primatology, 1999In this paper, we report on a craniometric analysis comparing the species of lion tamarins, Leontopithecus Lesson, 1840. Seventeen cranial and mandibular measures were taken on skulls of 59 adult crania: 20 L. rosalia (14 females and 6 males); 13 L. chrysomelas (6 females and 7 males); 23 L. chrysopygus (8 females and 15 males), and 3 L.

Callitrichids as phyletic dwarfs, and the place of the callitrichidae in platyrrhini
Primates, 1980Cebuella, Callithrix, Leontopithecus, andSaguinus share five distinguishing features. All of these features are best interpreted as derived character states within Platyrrhini, and these animals are phyletic dwarfs. These derived traits may form a single complex that evolved as a result of dwarfing.
