Ornithology Research, 2022 Insectivorous-frugivorous birds have been described to benefit from multiple forms of interspecific feeding associations. Here we present quantitative data on a new feeding association between the black-goggled tanager (Trichothraupis melanops) and an endangered frugivorous-faunivorous neotropical primate, the black lion tamarin (Leontopithecus ...

Contribution à l’étude de la mobilité de l’hallux et de la phylogénie des primates actuels
Revue de Primatologie, 2015 Material and methods: 51 anatomical specimens of non-human primates were dissected (18 embalmed, 33 fresh). The amplitudes of the medial cuneometatarsal and metatarsophalangeal articulations of the first ray of the foot of the various fresh pieces and ...

An investigation of ecological correlates with hand and foot morphology in callitrichid primates [PDF]
, 2013 Studies of primate taxonomy and phylogeny often depend on comparisons of limb dimensions, yet there is little information on how morphology correlates and contributes to foraging strategies and ecology.

Vertical clinging and leaping induced evolutionary rate shifts in postcranial evolution of tamarins and marmosets (Primates, Callitrichidae) [PDF]
, 2021 Background: Callitrichids comprise a diverse group of platyrrhine monkeys that are present across South and Central America. Their secondarily evolved small size and pointed claws allow them to cling to vertical trunks of a large diameter.

The Roosevelt – Rondon expedition marmoset (Mico marcai) : unveiling the conservation status of a data deficient species [PDF]
, 2018 The Roosevelt-Rondon Expedition marmoset, Mico marcai, was collected in 1914 and to date, all information on this species comes from three skins brought back by the Expedition and two additional skins collected in the 1990s. It is no surprise then that M.

Object grasping and manipulation in capuchin monkeys (genera Cebus and Sapajus) [PDF]
, 2018 The abilities to perform skilled hand movements and to manipulate objects dexterously are landmarks in the evolution of primates. The study of how primates use their hands to grasp and manipulate objects in accordance with their needs sheds light on how ...

Folia Primatologica, 2002 //8RDue to their small size, callitrichines are subject to predation pressure by a wide array of predators. Observed predator attacks and strong responses to less dangerous or non-dangerous stimuli support this contention [1–4]. Since twin births are the rule in callitrichines but populations do not grow drastically, a large proportion of infants and ...

Effects of reduced-impact logging on medium and large-bodied forest vertebrates in eastern Amazonia [PDF]
, 2015 Standard line-transect census techniques were deployed to generate a checklist and quantify the abundance of medium and large-bodied vertebrate species in forest areas of eastern Amazonia with and without a history of reduced-impact logging (RIL).

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 2, February 2025.Results of redundancy analysis and variation partitioning reveal that phylogeny influences quadrupedal kinematics more strongly than do substrate characteristics in platyrrhines moving in their natural habitat. Callitrichines are maximally divergent from other taxa due to their preference for asymmetrical gaits, higher speeds and higher stride ...

W(h)ither Fossils? Studying Morphological Character Evolution in the Age of Molecular Sequences [PDF]
, 2008 A major challenge in the post-genomics era will be to integrate molecular sequence data from extant organisms with morphological data from fossil and extant taxa into a single, coherent picture of phylogenetic relationships; only then will these ...
