Small but Nice–Seed Dispersal by Tamarins Compared to Large Neotropical Primates [PDF]
Diversity, 2022 Tamarins, small Neotropical primates of the genera Saguinus and Leontocebus, have a mainly frugivorous-faunivorous diet. While consuming the pulp of a high diversity of fruit species, they also swallow seeds and void them intact, thus acting as seed ...

Herpes Simplex Virus 1 in Trigeminal Ganglia of Trafficked Neotropical Primates, Peru, 2024 [PDF]
Emerging Infectious DiseasesWe detected herpes simplex virus 1 in the trigeminal ganglia of trafficked Neotropical primates (1 Aotus azarai; 3 Sapajus macrocephalus) in Peru. Tests also revealed Saimiriine alphaherpesvirus 1 in the trigeminal ganglia of 2 Saimiri sp. monkeys.

Threatened Neotropical Primates Harbor Genetically Diverse Hemoplasmas, Including Putative Novel Genotypes and Previously Unrecognized Host Associations [PDF]
MicroorganismsHemoplasmas are hemotropic mycoplasmas that infect erythrocytes and may cause hemolytic anemia in mammalian hosts. However, information on their occurrence and genetic diversity in threatened Neotropical primates remains scarce.
