The Roosevelt – Rondon expedition marmoset (Mico marcai) : unveiling the conservation status of a data deficient species [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Traditional classifications of Platyrrhini monkeys, based mainly on morphological features, are being contested by recent molecular data. The subfamily Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini, Primates) consists of a diverse group of species, many of them considered

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

Adaptations to tree-gouging in the anterior masticatory apparatus of marmosets (callithrix) [abstract] [PDF]
Although all genera of Callitrichinae engage in exudativory to some degree, marmosets (Callithrix, Cebuella) take advantage of exudates to the greatest extent.

Species tree estimation for a deep phylogenetic divergence in the New World monkeys (Primates: Platyrrhini) [PDF]
The estimation of a robust phylogeny is a necessary first step in understanding the biological diversification of the platyrrhines. Although the most recent phylogenies are generally robust, they differ from one another in the relationship between Aotus ...

Detection of fruit and the selection of primate visual pigments for color vision [PDF]
Primates have X chromosome genes for cone photopigments with sensitivity maxima from 535 to 562 nm. Old World monkeys and apes (catarrhines) and the New World (platyrrhine) genus Alouatta have separate genes for 535-nm (medium wavelength; M) and 562-nm ...
