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

Influences on gum feeding in primates [PDF]
, 2010 This chapter reviews the factors that may affect patterns of gum feeding by primates. These are then examined for mixed-species troops of saddleback (S. fuscicollis) and mustached (S. mystax) tamarins.

No sex-biased dispersal in a primate with an uncommon social system-cooperative polyandry. [PDF]
, 2014 An influential hypothesis proposed by Greenwood (1980) suggests that different mating systems result in female and male-biased dispersal, respectively, in birds and mammals.

An assessment of the population of cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus oedipus) and their habitat in Colombia [PDF]
, 2016 Numerous animals have declining populations due to habitat loss, illegal wildlife trade, and climate change. The cotton-top tamarin (Saguinus oedipus) is a Critically Endangered primate species, endemic to northwest Colombia, threatened by deforestation ...

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

Effect of colour vision status on insect prey capture efficiency of captive and wild tamarins (Saguinus spp.) [PDF]
, 2012 The colour vision polymorphism of most New World primates is a model system to study the function of colour vision. Theories for the evolution of primate trichromacy focus on the efficient detection and selection of ripe fruits and young leaves amongst ...
