Whole DNA Sequences of Cebus capucinus on Variant Maps [PDF]
AbstractDNA sequences as a big data stream have been researched for years. However, researches on whole DNA sequences have various limitations to use existing research methods. A new scheme is proposed to map whole DNA sequences as 2D maps in this chapter, the whole DNA sequence of Capuchin monkey (Cebus capucinus) in apes was used as an example to ...

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

Figs Are More Than Fallback Foods: The Relationship between Ficus and Cebus in a Tropical Dry Forest
In many studies on primate feeding ecology, figs (Ficus spp.) are characterized as fallback foods, utilized only when preferred sources of food are unavailable. However, for white-faced capuchin monkeys (Cebus capucinus) living in northwestern Costa Rica,

The Evolution of Primate Societies - Chapter 3 [PDF]
Compared with other primates, New World monkeys display relatively limited ecological variability. New World monkey anatomy and social systems, however, are extremely diverse.

Individualistic female dominance hierarchies with varying strength in a highly folivorous population of black-and-white colobus [PDF]
Females that do not experience strong contest competition for food are presumed to form egalitarianâ relationships (i.e., lacking strong, linear dominance hierarchies).

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

Defining AV2‐1 as a novel pharmacological probe to target human and rodent TRPV2
Abstract Background and Purpose Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a non‐selective cation channel implicated in immune cell functions. However, progress in understanding TRPV2 has been limited by a lack of potent and selective pharmacological tools, particularly those targeting the human variant. We aimed to identify and characterise a

Prehensile Tail Use in Mantled Howler Monkeys (Alouatta palliata) and White-Faced Capuchin Monkeys (Cebus capucinus) [PDF]
The prehensile tail, present in five platyrrhine genera, has evolved in parallel in Ateles, Lagothrix, Brachyteles, and Alouatta, comprising the atelines, and Cebus.

Dry season drinking from terrestrial man-made watering holes in arboreal wild Temminck’s red colobus, The Gambia [PDF]
Like most arboreal primates, redcolobus monkeys obtain most water from plants in their diet, licking their body or drinking occasionally from standing water in tree holes. Terrestrial drinking is not normally reported for arboreal primates.

We documented arboreal, multi‐species mammal latrines in montane cloud forests of Costa Rica by surveying 169 trees across 29 species. Latrines were found exclusively on Ficus tuerckheimii, with 11 occurrences across two mountain ranges and an additional observation in Honduras.
