Novel Gamma-1 Herpesviruses Identified in Free-Ranging New World Monkeys (Golden-Handed Tamarin [Saguinus midas], Squirrel Monkey [Saimiri sciureus], and White-Faced Saki [Pithecia pithecia]) in French Guiana [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2003 ABSTRACTThe recent finding of a novel Epstein-Barr virus-related lymphocryptovirus (CalHV-3) in a captive colony of common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) in the United States modifies the view that the host range of lymphocryptovirus is restricted to humans and Old World primates.

Whole-Epiphysis Trabecular Bone in Tamarin Limbs Suggests Effects of Leaping Distance Alongside Non-Biomechanical Factors. [PDF]
Am J Biol AnthropolABSTRACT Objectives Beyond non‐biomechanical factors, the trabecular architecture of long bone epiphyses variably underlies functional adaptations to locomotor behavior. A recent study, characterizing tamarin trabecular bone using traditional metrics derived from Volumes of Interest (VOIs), identified a preliminary relationship with leaping distance ...

A Historical Reassessment of the Authorship Year of Brachyteles arachnoides (Primates: Atelidae). [PDF]
Am J PrimatolKey historical milestones in the taxonomy of Brachyteles arachnoides. It begins with Browne's (1756) early depiction of Simia 2, “The Four‐fingered Monkey”, in Jamaica, followed by Edwards' (1764) account of a brown four‐fingered monkey in the streets of London.

Primate populations in continuous forest and forest fragments in Central Amazonia [PDF]
Acta Amazonica, 1988 Population densities of six primate species (Saguinus midas, Pithecia pithecia, Cebus apella, Chiropotes satanas, Alouatta seniculus and Ateles paniscus) were estimated in continuous forest and in isolated reserves (one of 100 ha and four of 10 ha ...

Interspecific behavioural interference and range dynamics: current insights and future directions
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 6, Page 2012-2027, December 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Novel biotic interactions in shifting communities play a key role in determining the ability of species' ranges to track suitable habitat. To date, the impact of biotic interactions on range dynamics have predominantly been studied in the context of interactions between different trophic levels or, to a lesser extent, exploitative competition ...

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 20, Page 5514-5527, October 2023., 2023 Abstract During the last century, the critically endangered cotton‐top tamarin (Saguinus oedipus) has been threatened by multiple anthropogenic factors that drastically affected their habitat and population size. As the genetic impact of these pressures is largely unknown, this study aimed to establish a genetic baseline with the use of temporal ...

Trigger of twin‐fights in captive common marmosets
American Journal of Primatology, Volume 85, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023 The figure represents the relationships between the interbirth‐interval (IBI) and days postpartum under the birth‐controlled condition (BCC, closed circles) and under the uncontrolled condition (UCC, open circles), clearly indicating the linear relationships of two parameters and bimodal distribution of the birth control treatments.

Journal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023 This work highlights morphological variations in skulls and humerus in extant rodents with varying locomotion, to predict this parameter in the extinct species Diamantomys luederitzi (Early Miocene, Napak, Uganda). The use of LDA and phylogenetic flexible discriminant analyses with different data sets (measurements and landmarks) allow a better ...

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...
