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

open access: yesAmerican 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.

Sistemática, evolución y paleobiogeografía de los primates Platyrrhini [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Estudios recientes acerca de las relaciones filogenéticas entre los primates platirrinos basados en datos morfológicos y moleculares, concuerdan en una división en tres familias: Atelidae, Pitheciidae y Cebidae, con la única excepción de Aotus, que ...

Kunsia tomentosus (Rodentia: Cricetidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Kunsia tomentosus (Lichtenstein, 1830), the woolly giant rat, is a semifossorial cricetid typically associated with the Cerrado and Beni domains in central South America. Kunsia was recently revised and includes only 1 species.

Chromosome phylogeny of the subfamily Pitheciinae (Platyrrhini, Primates) by classic cytogenetics and chromosome painting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: The New World monkey (Platyrrhini) subfamily Pitheciinae is represented by the genera Pithecia, Chiropotes and Cacajao. In this work we studied the karyotypes of Pithecia irrorata (2n = 48) and Cacajao calvus rubicundus (2n = 45 in males and ...

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

open access: yesZoo 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 ...

Male Reproductive Strategies in Black and Gold Howler Monkeys (Alouatta caraya) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Behavioral and demographic factors such as group size, social structure, dispersal patterns, and mating systems affect male reproductive success. In the present study, we analyze the relationship between social structure, genetic relatedness of adult ...

Amplification Dynamics of Platy-1 Retrotransposons in the Cebidae Platyrrhine Lineage

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2019
Platy-1 elements are Platyrrhine-specific, short interspersed elements originally discovered in the Callithrix jacchus (common marmoset) genome. To date, only the marmoset genome has been analyzed for Platy-1 repeat content. Here, we report full-length Platy-1 insertions in other New World monkey (NWM) genomes (Saimiri boliviensis, squirrel monkey ...

Morphofunctional Space of the Forelimb in Caraguatypotherium munozi (Notoungulata; Mesotheriidae): Insights Into Wrist‐Powered Digging

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 8, August 2025.
Caraguatypotherium munozi displays a distinctive morphofunctional configuration combining high wrist flexor leverage with reduced elbow mechanical advantage—traits consistent with wrist‐dominated scratch‐digging. Multivariate analyses place it outside the core morphospaces of extant locomotor groups.

Molecular phylogeny of the genus Saguinus (Platyrrhini, Primates) based on the ND1 mitochondrial gene and implications for conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The systematics of the subfamily Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini, Primates), a group of small monkeys from South America and Panama, remains an area of considerable discussion despite many investigations, there being continuing controversy over subgeneric ...

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

open access: yesGenetics 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 ...
