Joint function in marmosets and tamarins: Insights from computational modeling of hip extensor muscles. [PDF]
J AnatThis pilot study uses computational modeling to analyze five hip extensor muscles in four Callitrichidae species, aiming to identify adaptations to different leaping behaviors. Muscle topology was reconstructed from microCT scans to model instantaneous muscle moment arms and muscle strains during hip extension.

Orbital asymmetries in tamarins of the genus Saguinus (Primates, Callitrichidae) [PDF]
Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle “Grigore Antipa”The aim of this study was to analyse the orbital asymmetry in Saguinus skulls. The examination was conducted on 13 dry well-preserved skulls, belonging to different species of the genus Saguinus. The sample was studied by means of geometric morphological

Functions of Intermittent Locomotion in Mustached Tamarins (Saguinus mystax) [PDF]
, 2010 Many animals interrupt their moving with brief pauses, which appear to serve several different functions. We examined the function of such intermittent locomotion in wild living mustached tamarins (Saguinus mystax), small arboreal New World primates that
