Cebus apella (Primata: Cebidae) as a new host for Fonsecalges johnjadini (Acari: Psoroptidae, Cebalginae) with a description of anatomopathological aspects

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2001
Mites collected from the auditory canal of Cebus apella (capuchin monkey), family Cebidae, were identified as Fonsecalges johnjadini (Psoroptidae, Cebalginae). It is the first record of this parasite from this monkey. This paper emphasizes the importance

Occurrence of Antibodies Anti‐Toxoplasma gondii in Captive Non‐Human Primates From Pernambuco State, Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife captive populations are important tools for threatened species conservation, and early identification of diseases must be prioritized. In this study, we test for the presence of anti‐Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in non‐human primates at a Zoo from Pernambuco State, Brazil.

The effect of dietary adaption on cranial morphological integration in capuchins (order Primates, genus Cebus).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A fundamental challenge of morphology is to identify the underlying evolutionary and developmental mechanisms leading to correlated phenotypic characters.

Non‐Invasive Measures of DNA Methylation Capture Molecular Aging in Wild Capuchin Monkeys

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 14, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Elucidating the socio‐ecological factors that shape patterns of aging in long‐lived vertebrates is of broad interest to evolutionary biologists, geroscientists, and ecologists. However, research on aging in wild populations still faces challenges due to the difficulty of measuring cellular hallmarks of aging non‐invasively and the difficulty ...

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

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
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.

The flexible, the stereotyped and the in‐between: putting together the combinatory tool use origins hypothesis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1235-1254, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

The stone tools of capuchins (Cebus apella) [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Primatology, 1995
We examined the production of stone took by capuchins (Cebus apella). Eleven subjects used five reduction techniques to produce 346 stone tools (48 cores and 298 flakes). They produced a sharp edge on 83% of the cores and largest flakes. Three monkeys later used a sample of these objects as cutting tools.

Bimanual Coordination and Right‐Hand Bias in Extractive Foraging by Wild Sapajus libidinosus

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 5, May 2026.
Wild Sapajus libidinosus exhibit a significant preference at the population level for using their right‐hand fingers to extract nut kernels when employing bimanual coordination. ABSTRACT Bimanual coordination is considered a crucial factor in the evolution of manual lateralization.

SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION OF DENTINAL TUBULES IN MONKEY DENTIN SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION OF DENTINAL TUBULES IN Cebus apella DENTIN

open access: yesCiência Animal Brasileira, 2009
<div>The aim of the study was to investigate the number and diameter of the Cebus apella dentinal tubules. The roots of the Cebus apella teeth were examined in specific tooth locations: the apical, middle and cervical dentin.

PriMath—The Role of Intrinsic Factors in Quantitative Cognitive Performance of Highly Social Primates

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our study investigated the quantity discrimination ability in a highly social group of New World monkeys, with the goal of understanding how individual differences in performance due to group composition might be explained from an evolutionary perspective.
