Detection of fruit and the selection of primate visual pigments for color vision [PDF]
, 2004 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 ...

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 ...

Community ecology of the Middle Miocene primates of La Venta, Colombia: the relationship between ecological diversity, divergence time, and phylogenetic richness [PDF]
, 2010 It has been suggested that the degree of ecological diversity that characterizes a primate community correlates positively with both its phylogenetic richness and the time since the members of that community diverged (Fleagle and Reed in Primate ...

Early evolutionary diversification of mandible morphology in the New World monkeys (Primate, Platyrrhini) [PDF]
, 2020 New World monkeys (order Primates) are an example of a major mammalian evolutionary radiation in the Americas, with a contentious fossil record. There is evidence of an early platyrrhine occupation of this continent by the EoceneeOligocene transition ...

Novos dados sobre as relações filogenéticas de dois macacos gigantes extintos do Novo Mundo (Primates, Platyrrhini) [PDF]
, 2021 The phylogenetic position of the genera Caipora and Protopithecus within the Platyrrhini was investigated within a cladistic framework based on morphological characters with emphasis on patterns of tooth variation.

Comparison of prenatal and postnatal ontogeny: cranial allometry in the African striped mouse (Rhabdomys pumilio) [PDF]
, 2017 The relationship between prenatal and postnatal ontogenetic allometry is poorly known, and empirical studies documenting prenatal allometry are few, precluding an understanding of changes in growth patterns during life history and their relation to ...

Evolution of ontogenetic allometry shaping giant species: a case study from the damselfish genus Dascyllus (Pomacentridae) [PDF]
, 2010 The evolution of body size, the paired phenomena of giantism and dwarfism, has long been studied by biologists and paleontologists. However, detailed investigations devoted to the study of the evolution of ontogenetic patterns shaping giant species are ...

Diversificación morfológica de los primates platirrinos: una aproximación craneofuncional comparativa [PDF]
, 2023 Evolutionary history of platyrrhines resulted in an outstanding morphological variation of their craniofacial structures. The early divergence of lineages and the occupation of varied niches are potential causes for this diversity.
