Phylogenomics of Amazonian squirrel monkeys (Saimiri: Primates, Cebidae)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution
Phylogenetic relationships among squirrel monkeys (genus Saimiri) are still poorly resolved. Morphology-based taxonomies range from two to 12 taxa, while molecular phylogenies have recovered up to 17 different lineages. The last species account lists 11 taxa: Saimiri boliviensis boliviensis, S. boliviensis peruviensis, S. vanzolinii, S.

Neopterin as a Tool for Primate Ecoimmunology: Current Knowledge, Practical Application, and New Directions From Captivity to the Wild

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 10, October 2025.
Neopterin is a sensitive and specific biomarker of intracellular pathogen infection and chronic inflammation, and affected by environmental, life‐history, and sex‐contextual factors. This review offers best‐practice guidelines and practical advice on sample collection, storage, and analysis in primates when used for ecoimmunological conservation and ...

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the black-capped capuchin (Cebus apella)

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
The phylogenetic relationships of primates have been extensively investigated, but key issues remain unresolved. Complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) data have many advantages in phylogenetic analyses, but such data are available for only 46 ...

Absence of Blood Chimerism in Twin Goeldi's Monkeys (Callimico goeldii): Implications for Interpreting Callitrichid Phylogeny

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 9, September 2025.
All Callitrichidae have twins who are chimeras, but Callimico has singletons. We examined evidence of blood chimerism in the only known surviving Callimico twins, and found that they were non‐chimeric. This represents the first report of the absence of blood chimerism in twins of any callitrichid species.

Incisor cross‐sectional area at the cementoenamel junction correlates with an increased reliance on frugivory in anthropoid primates

The Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 9, Page 2469-2489, September 2025.
Abstract Diet is one of a limited set of key ecological parameters defining primate species. A detailed understanding of dental functional correlates with primate diet is a key component for accurate dietary inference in fossil primates. Although considerable effort has been devoted to understanding post‐canine dental function, incisor function remains

Wild Encounters: Analyzing Human–Animal Interactions in British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums Facilities

Zoo Biology, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 461-473, September/October 2025.
We investigated the quantity and diversity of animal–visitor interactions in BIAZA‐accredited facilities, finding 740 opportunities for interactions across a range of contexts including walkthroughs and handling. Meet and greets were the most offered and were influenced by the number of individual animals, cost of interaction, and animal popularity ...

Phylogenetic studies of the genus Cebus(Cebidae-Primates) using chromosome painting and G-banding [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Abstract Background Chromosomal painting, using whole chromosome probes from humans and Saguinus oedipus, was used to establish karyotypic divergence among species of the genus Cebus, including C. olivaceus, C. albifrons, C. apella robustus and C. apella paraguayanus.
