Flower Feeding and Reproductive Timing in Spix's Night Monkeys (Aotus vociferans): Evidence From Arboreal Camera Traps

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This article provides new insights into the diet and reproductive biology of the Spix's night monkeys (Aotus vociferans). This evidence was collected using arboreal camera traps in a tropical mountain rainforest in Southern Ecuador, where documented information on this primate is rare.

Simian Foamy Viruses in Central and South America: A New World of Discovery

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Foamy viruses (FVs) are the only exogenous retrovirus to date known to infect neotropical primates (NPs). In the last decade, an increasing number of strains have been completely or partially sequenced, and molecular evolution analyses have identified an

Regeneration Strategies in Seed Plants: A Continuum Shaping Survival

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Seed plants dominate terrestrial ecosystems in part because regeneration is not a single event, but a coordinated sequence of traits acting across time and space. Here, we synthesize regeneration strategies in seed plants as a continuous, integrated framework spanning pre‐germination regulation, germination timing, seedling emergence, soil seed banking,

Behavioral Flexibility and the Conservation Value of Howler Monkey Populations in Small Habitat Patches

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 6, June 2026.
Standardized effect sizes of the relationships between predictor and response variables. Natural logarithms are denoted as “ln.” Open circles (blue outline) indicate mostly positive effects; solid circles (red filled) indicate mostly negative effects. ABSTRACT Species occupying small habitat patches and exhibiting behavioral and ecological flexibility ...

SEROLOGICAL DETECTION OF HEPATITIS A VIRUS IN FREE-RANGING NEOTROPICAL PRIMATES (Sapajus spp., Alouatta caraya) FROM THE PARANÁ RIVER BASIN, BRAZIL

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2016
Nonhuman primates are considered as the natural hosts of Hepatitis A virus (HAV), as well as other pathogens, and can serve as natural sentinels to investigate epizootics and endemic diseases that are of public health importance. During this study, blood

Whole‐Epiphysis Trabecular Bone in Tamarin Limbs Suggests Effects of Leaping Distance Alongside Non‐Biomechanical Factors

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Beyond non‐biomechanical factors, the trabecular architecture of long bone epiphyses variably underlies functional adaptations to locomotor behavior. A recent study, characterizing tamarin trabecular bone using traditional metrics derived from Volumes of Interest (VOIs), identified a preliminary relationship with leaping distance ...

Eco-Epidemiological Profile and Molecular Characterization of Simian Foamy Virus in a Recently-Captured Invasive Population of Leontopithecus chrysomelas (Golden-Headed Lion Tamarin) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Simian foamy viruses (SFV) infect a wide range of Old World and Neotropical primates (NP). Unlike Old World primates, little is known about the diversity and prevalence of SFV in NP, mainly from a free-living population.

Helminths of Wied’s marmoset (Callithrix kuhlii (Coimbra-Filho, 1985) (Primates: Callitrichidae)) from the Atlantic Forest, Southern Bahia State, Brazil

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
Callithrix kuhlii is present in forest mosaics, edge habitats, and abandoned fields in the Atlantic Forest. In Bahia and Minas Gerais. This study aimed to identify helminths from C. kuhlii and relate them to the clinical data, weights, and indices of the

Coinfection with Canine Distemper Virus and Yellow Fever Virus in a Neotropical Primate in Brazil

open access: yesViruses
We describe a natural coinfection with canine distemper virus (CDV) and yellow fever virus in a free-ranging neotropical primate of the genus Callithrix, found dead in the northeastern region of Brazil.
