Some Evolutionary Tendencies of Neotropical Primates
Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2009 The evolution of neotropical primates has occurred isolated from other primates of the world so that there is a distinct evolutionary history. There are various characteristics of neotropical primates (Platyrrhini) that are quite distinct from those of ...

Myrmecovory in Neotropical primates. [PDF]
Primates, 2021 AbstractAnts are the dominant group of animals in many habitats, particularly in tropical rainforests. High abundance and formation of large colonies convert them into a potential food source for a broad spectrum of animals. In this paper we review myrmecovory (consumption of ants) in Neotropical primates.

Ultrasonography of the neotropical primate female reproductive system
Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceThe Neotropical (e. g., Aotus sp., Callithrix jacchus, Saguinus sp., Saimiri sp., and Sapajus sp.) primates are important models for biomedical research and studies on reproductive physiology and biotechnology.

Environmental enrichment for neotropical primates in captivity Enriquecimento ambiental para primatas neotropicais em cativeiro [PDF]
Ciência Rural, 2001 Captivity is an extreme non-natural environment for primates. The success of a breeding colony depends of management and veterinarian procedures which must rely on the knowledge of primates' behavioral needs. Environmental enrichment consists of a series

Small but Nice–Seed Dispersal by Tamarins Compared to Large Neotropical Primates
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 ...
