Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

Interspecific interactions and welfare implications in mixed species communities of capuchin (sapajus apella) and squirrel monkeys (saimiri sciureus) over 3 years [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Species have complex relationships with others in the wild, and some such as capuchin (Sapajus apella) and squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus) naturally choose to associate with each other.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 8, Page 2199-2220, August 2026.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

Outbreak of Toxoplasmosis Caused by the Brazilian Lineage Type BrII in Black Lion Tamarins (Leontopithecus chrysopygus) Co‐Infected With Leishmania sp.

open access: yesJournal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Toxoplasmosis and leishmaniosis are zoonotic diseases that affect several species of neotropical primates. Methods Three black lion tamarins (Leontopithecus chrysopygus) kept at a Brazilian zoo died due to a superacute disease.

Early Detection of Neuroinflammation and White Matter Damage Following Dorsal Spinal Nerve Root Sectioning in a Nonhuman Primate Model

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 2786-2796, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Dorsal rhizotomy, or spinal dorsal nerve root lesioning, is a surgical procedure used to treat intractable nerve pain by selectively severing sensory afferent nerve roots. This study aimed to evaluate whether multiparametric MRI, including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), quantitative magnetization transfer (qMT), chemical exchange ...

Acute fipronil intoxication in Squirrel Monkey (Saimiri sciureus)

open access: yes, 2021
A biocidal product in gel form containing 0.05% fipronil active substance was used for pest control in the habitat of thirteen Squirrel Monkey (Saimiri sciureus) in a zoo. Following the application, sudden death was observed in three primates.

Gestural Sequences in Wild Spider Monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 4, April 2026.
Geoffroy's spider monkeys produce gestural sequences in the wild, mostly during aggressive, playful and sexual interactions. ABSTRACT To date, research on gestural communication in species other than great apes has been quite limited, especially in their natural habitat, although including a broader range of species in different settings is essential ...
