Taxonomic and sex differences in sagittal cresting among gracile and robust capuchin monkeys. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anat
In this study, I show that there are interspecific differences in the frequency and pattern of sagittal cresting among six capuchin species. Four of the six species show sagittal cresting, with Cebus capucinus showing a different sagittal cresting pattern to that observed in three robust capuchin species. All four crested species show sexual dimorphism

Contexts of Anointing Behavior in a Group of Blond Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus flavius) Inhabiting an Atlantic Forest Fragment. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Primatol
Wild blond capuchin anoints with millipede species that secrete a chemical capable of repelling ectoparasites, suggesting a self‐medicative function. Social and solitary anointing bouts occurred at similar frequencies, but with greater engagement by adult males, indicating that anointing is a multifunctional behavior.

Behavioral Contagion in Wild Ecuadorian White-Fronted Capuchins (Cebus aequatorialis). [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Primatol
White‐fronted capuchins exhibit scratching contagion, but neither the characteristics of the trigger, or of the partner's (sex, age class, or centrality), or of the dyad (combination of sex, combination of age class, or social bond) seem to modulate the likelihood of contagion.

Selfish or altruistic? An analysis of alarm call function in wild capuchin monkeys, Cebus apella nigritus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Alarm calls facilitate some antipredatory benefits of group living but may endanger the caller by attracting the predator's attention. A number of hypotheses invoking kin selection and individual selection have been proposed to explain how such behaviour
