Some Evolutionary Tendencies of Neotropical Primates

open access: yesActa 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 ...
