Climatic niche evolution in New World monkeys (Platyrrhini).
Despite considerable interest in recent years on species distribution modeling and phylogenetic niche conservatism, little is known about the way in which climatic niches change over evolutionary time.

Chromosome Evolution in New World Monkeys (Platyrrhini) [PDF]
During the last decades, New World monkey (NWM, Platyrrhini, Anthropoideae) comparative cytogenetics has shed light on many fundamental aspects of genome organisation and evolution in this fascinating, but also highly endangered group of neotropical primates.

Chromosome phylogeny of the subfamily Pitheciinae (Platyrrhini, Primates) by classic cytogenetics and chromosome painting [PDF]
Background The New World monkey (Platyrrhini) subfamily Pitheciinae is represented by the genera Pithecia, Chiropotes and Cacajao. In this work we studied the karyotypes of Pithecia irrorata (2n = 48) and Cacajao calvus rubicundus (2n = 45 in males and ...

Phylogenetische Untersuchungen an Schädeln der Neuweltaffen (Platyrrhini) [PDF]
In der vorliegenden Studie wurde das statistische Verfahren der Q-Faktorenanalyse mit Varimax-Rotation (siehe z.B. BORTZ, 1993) angewandt, um komplexe Merkmale aus Schädelmaßen der Neuweltaffen (Platyrrhini) und verwandter Taxa zu ermitteln.

Mapping CAP-A satellite DNAs by FISH in Sapajus cay paraguay and S. macrocephalus (Platyrrhini, Primates) [PDF]
Satellite DNAs such as Cap-A sequences are potentially informative taxonomic and phylogenetic markers useful for characterizing primate genomes. They have also been used as cytogenetic markers facilitating species identification in many taxa. The aim of

Multiple sex chromosome systems in howler monkeys (Platyrrhini, Alouatta) [PDF]
In light of the multiple sex chromosome systems observed in howler monkeys (Alouatta Lacépède, 1799) a combined cladistic analysis using chromosomal and molecular characters was applied to discuss the possible origin of these systems ...

HERV-W group evolutionary history in non-human primates: characterization of ERV-W orthologs in Catarrhini and related ERV groups in Platyrrhini [PDF]
Background The genomes of all vertebrates harbor remnants of ancient retroviral infections, having affected the germ line cells during the last 100 million years.

Pairing and recombination features during meiosis in
Background Among neotropical Primates, the Cai monkey Cebus paraguayanus (CPA) presents long, conserved chromosome syntenies with the human karyotype (HSA) as well as numerous C+ blocks in different chromosome pairs. In this study, immunofluorescence (IF)

Occurrence of Antibodies Anti-Toxoplasma gondii in Captive Non-Human Primates From Pernambuco State, Brazil. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Wildlife captive populations are important tools for threatened species conservation, and early identification of diseases must be prioritized. In this study, we test for the presence of anti‐Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in non‐human primates at a Zoo from Pernambuco State, Brazil.
