Morphology, Taxonomic Status and Affinities of the Lion Tamarins, Leontopithecus (Callitrichinae, Cebidae) [PDF]

open access: bronzeFolia Primatologica, 1984
A survey of craniodental variability of the three allopatric populations of Leontopithecus reveals that they are morphologically heterogeneous and individually distinctive, with a nonclinal distribution of characters and pattern similarities. These observations correspond with their better known, starkly different coat coloration, and imply important ...

How many marmoset (Primates: Cebidae: Callitrichinae) genera are there? A phylogenetic analysis based on multiple morphological systems [PDF]

open access: bronzeCladistics, 2015
AbstractThe marmosets, tribe Callitrichini, are the most speciose clade in the subfamily Callitrichinae, containing 21 species. However, there is no consensus among molecular and morphological systematists as to how many genera should be recognized for the group.

Predation of treefrogs (Anura: Hylidae) with toxic skin secretions by the black lion tamarin (Leontopithecus chrysopygus, Callitrichinae)

open access: greenPrimates, 2020
We report on the predation of a veined treefrog (Trachycephalus venulosus) and an ocellated treefrog (Itapotihyla langsdorffii), both species with noxious skin secretions, by black lion tamarins (Leontopithecus chrysopygus). The two predation events took place in Morro do Diabo State Park, an Atlantic Forest reserve in southeastern Brazil.

Common marmosets Callithrix jacchus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Primates: Cebidae: Callitrichinae) in an urban mangrove: behavioral ecology and environmental influences

open access: diamondBoletim do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi - Ciências Naturais, 2020
The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) is a primate found in urban forests and in high density of human population sites, however there is insufficient informations about its behavior in mangroves. One group of marmosets was monitored in the Espaço Ciência museum, in the state of Pernambuco, Northeastern Brazil, located in a mangrove area that has ...

Allometric Scaling in Platyrrhine Molars and Relationships between Their Relative Size and Loss of the Third Molar in the Callitrichinae

open access: bronzePrimate Research, 2002
There is the hypothesis (Ford, 1980) that the callitrichines, which are rapidly dwarfed, should have relatively large postcanine teeth in comparison with other platyrrhines (non-callitrichines) and the loss of the third molars is probably the result of crowding from the disproportional enlarged molar teeth. In the present study, to test this hypothesis,

Craniofacial morphometric analysis as a differentiation tool in mystax group of Saguinus Hoffmannsegg, 1807 (Cebidae, Callitrichinae): a preliminary test

open access: bronzeLundiana: International Journal of Biodiversity, 2021
This study provides a quantitative assessment of the craniofacial variation among recognized species and subspecies in the Saguinus mystax species group and tests the reliability of the proposed method in detecting differences among taxa. Thirty measurements were taken of 66 tamarin specimens.

Adaptation in the face of internal conflict: the paradox of the organism revisited

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 5, Page 1796-1811, October 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT The paradox of the organism refers to the observation that organisms appear to function as coherent purposeful entities, despite the potential for within‐organismal components like selfish genetic elements and cancer cells to erode them from within. While it is commonly accepted that organisms may pursue fitness maximisation and can be thought

Comparative gastrointestinal organ lengths among Amazonian primates (Primates: Platyrrhini)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 181, Issue 3, Page 440-453, July 2023., 2023
Principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) comparing the individual gastrointestinal variation based on Euclidean distance (51% of explanation for the axis 1 and 26% of axis 2), where CeQ, cecal quotient; CoQ, colonic quotient; EQ, esophageal quotient; GQ, gastric quotient; IQ, small intestine quotient; RQ, rectal quotient. Ellipses represent 95% confidence

Comprehensive search filters for retrieving publications on nonhuman primates for literature reviews (filterNHP)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 83, Issue 7, July 2021., 2021
Comprehensive Nonhuman primate search filters (and those for taxonomic sub‐groups) for literature reviews can be accessed using the filterNHP R package or at https://filterNHP.dpz.eu. Abstract Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are widely studied across many scientific disciplines using a variety of techniques in diverse environments.
