Effect of colour vision status on insect prey capture efficiency of captive and wild tamarins (Saguinus spp.) [PDF]

, 2012
The colour vision polymorphism of most New World primates is a model system to study the function of colour vision. Theories for the evolution of primate trichromacy focus on the efficient detection and selection of ripe fruits and young leaves amongst ...
