Scale-Dependent Effects of a Heterogeneous Landscape on Genetic Differentiation in the Central American Squirrel Monkey (Saimiri oerstedii) [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Landscape genetic studies offer a fine-scale understanding of how habitat heterogeneity influences population genetic structure. We examined population genetic structure and conducted a landscape genetic analysis for the endangered Central American ...

Habitat modification and gene flow in Saimiri oerstedii: Landscape genetics, intraspecific molecular systematics, and conservation [PDF]
, 2011 Habitat modification, when it results in population fragmentation, often results in the loss of genetic diversity due to reduced gene flow, inbreeding, and genetic drift. However, the severity of these effects depends on how diminished dispersal and gene flow become between patches of suitable habitat.

The Central American Squirrel Monkey (Saimiri oerstedii): Introduced Hybrid or Endemic Species?
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2000 Although squirrel monkeys (Saimiri spp., Primates: Cebidae) are abundant and widespread in South America, the disjunct Central American species, Saimiri oerstedii, has been restricted to the Pacific wet lowlands of Costa Rica and Panama since the earliest historical records.

Analysis of the Hypothetical Population Structure of the Squirrel Monkey (Saimiri oerstedii) in Panamá [PDF]
, 2003 The Central American squirrel monkey (Saimiri oerstedii) is an endemic species from the coast of the Pacific Ocean to southeast Costa Rica and southwest Panama (Hershkovitz, 1984). Three common species (S. ustus, S. sciureus, and S. boliviensis) are found in South America and are distributed in the tropical forests of the Guayanas, the Amazon basin ...

Plant Diversity in the Diet of Costa Rican Primates in Contrasting Habitats: A Meta-Analysis
Diversity, 2023 In human-modified tropical landscapes, the survival of arboreal vertebrates, particularly primates, depends on their plant dietary diversity. Here, we assess the diversity of plants included in the diet of Costa Rican non-human primates, CR-NHP (i.e ...

Characterization of satellite DNAs in squirrel monkeys genus Saimiri (Cebidae, Platyrrhini) [PDF]
, 2020 O gênero Saimiri é um quebra-cabeça taxonômico e filogenético de décadas para o qual a citogenética contribuiu com dados cruciais. Todas as espécies de Saimiri aparentemente têm um número diplóide de 2n = 44, mas variam no número de braços cromossômicos.
