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

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

Stone tools differences across three capuchin monkey populations: food’s physical properties, ecology, and culture

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Robust capuchin monkeys (Sapajus) are known for processing mechanically challenging foods, having morphological adaptations to do so. However, several populations go beyond body limitations by using stone tools to expand their food range.

Synergistic effects of habitat fragmentation and hunting on the extinction risk of neotropical primates

open access: yesBiodiversity and Conservation, 2023
Habitat fragmentation and overexploitation of natural resources are the most prevalent and severe threats to biodiversity in tropical forests. Several studies have estimated the effect of these threats on species extinction risk, however the effect ...

Molecular detection and genetic characterization of Ehrlichia canis and Ehrlichia sp. in neotropical primates from Brazil.

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2023
The Anaplasmataceae family includes obligate, arthropod-transmitted intracellular bacteria that can be zoonotic and potentially fatal. Studies focusing on the interaction between neotropical primates and the agents of this family are scarce.

New records of Amblyomma ticks parasitizing neotropical primates in Brazil.

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2023
Amblyomma is an important tick genus for animal and human health, with some species being the vectors of zoonotic pathogens, such as Rickettsia rickettsii, in the Neotropical region.

Proximate causes of the red face of the bald uakari monkey (Cacajao calvus) [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2015
In social species, such as primates, facial appearances transmit a variety of social signals. Although it is suggested that the intense red colour of the face of the bald uakari monkey might be an indicator of health, this hypothesis still has not been ...

Impact of human created environments in the pathogenic potential and antimicrobial resistance of staphylococci from wild neotropical primates in Brazil.

open access: yesComparative Immunology, Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2023
The non-human primate (NHP) Leontopithecus rosalia is an endangered species native of Brazil and lives in forest fragments with different levels of contact with humans (natural, private and urban). Other NHPs - Callithrix spp. - were introduced by humans

The Role of Rivers as Geographical Barriers in Shaping Genetic Differentiation and Diversity of Neotropical Primates

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
We quantitatively tested the riverine barrier hypothesis and its influence on biogeographical distributions and molecular variation in New World monkeys (Parvorder: Platyrrhini). Using mitochondrial markers (cytochrome oxidase subunit II and cytochrome b)

Isolation and genetic characterization of Toxoplasma gondii from a captive black-and-gold howler monkey (Alouatta caraya Humboldt, 1812) in Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022
Toxoplasma gondii was isolated in mice from different tissues of a captive black-and-gold howler monkey (Alouatta caraya) kept in a colony at the Primatology Center of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, and it was genotypically characterized based on using ...
