The raphe nuclear organization and serotonergic system in the bat (Artibeus planirostris)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the methodological workflow used to characterize the serotonergic (5‐HT) system in the bat Artibeus planirostris. Serotonin (5‐HT) immunohistochemistry was performed on brainstem sections to identify and map the distribution of serotonergic neurons within the raphe nuclei.

Possible fruit protein effects on primate communities in madagascar and the neotropics. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
The ecological factors contributing to the evolution of tropical vertebrate communities are still poorly understood. Primate communities of the tropical Americas have fewer folivorous but more frugivorous genera than tropical regions of the Old World and

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

Patch size, functional isolation, visibility and matrix permeability influences neotropical primate occurrence within highly fragmented landscapes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Forest fragmentation and habitat loss are among the major current extinction causes. Remaining fragments are mostly small, isolated and showing poor quality. Being primarily arboreal, Neotropical primates are generally sensitive to fragmentation effects.

Infanticide and infant defence by males--modelling the conditions in primate multi-male groups [PDF]

, 2004
Infanticide by primate males was considered rare if groups contain more than one adult male because, owing to lower paternity certainty, a male should be less likely to benefit from infanticide.

Infection by Toxoplasma gondii in Neotropical non-human primates

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2012
Toxoplasma gondii (Nicolle et Manceaux, 1909) is an obligatory intracellular protozoan parasite of warm animals, including human and non-human primates. Domestic and wild felids are considered definitive hosts.

Molecular phylogeny of the genus Saguinus (Platyrrhini, Primates) based on the ND1 mitochondrial gene and implications for conservation [PDF]

, 2005
The systematics of the subfamily Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini, Primates), a group of small monkeys from South America and Panama, remains an area of considerable discussion despite many investigations, there being continuing controversy over subgeneric ...

To be or Not to be Hybrids? A Case‐Study in an Allochthonous Population Involving Illegal Introductions of the Endangered Golden‐Headed and Golden Lion Tamarins

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 1, January 2026.
Genetic analyses of an allochthonous population of Leontopithecus, illegally introduced into an area of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest in Rio de Janeiro, did not detect signs of hybridization. This data provides crucial information to support conservation efforts and prevent new threats to the endangered lion tamarins. ABSTRACT Allochthonous species can

Methods for detecting Zika virus in feces: A case study in captive squirrel monkeys (Saimiri boliviensis boliviensis).

PLoS ONE, 2018
A strain of Zika virus (ZIKV) of Asian origin associated with birth defects and neurological disorders has emerged and spread through the Americas. ZIKV was first isolated in the blood of nonhuman primates in Africa and has been detected in the blood ...

Divergent evolution and purifying selection of the H (FUT1) gene in New World monkeys (Primates, Platyrrhini)

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2004
In the present study, the coding region of the H gene was sequenced and analyzed in fourteen genera of New World primates (Alouatta, Aotus, Ateles, Brachyteles, Cacajao, Callicebus, Callithrix, Cebus, Chiropotes, Lagothrix, Leontopithecus, Pithecia ...
