The shape of lipsmacking: socio-emotional regulation in bearded capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) [PDF]

Evolutionary Human Sciences, 2023
Capuchin monkeys have rich social relationships and from very young ages they participate in complex interactions with members of their group. Lipsmacking behaviour, which involves at least two individuals in socially mediated interactions, may tell ...

Feeding postural behaviors and food geometric and material properties in bearded capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) [PDF]

Am J Biol Anthropol, 2022
Foods that are geometrically and mechanically challenging to eat have been associated with specializations in feeding behavior and craniodental morphology across primates, and many of these foods are embedded, requiring a variety of positional behaviors ...

Nut-cracking success and efficiency in two wild capuchin monkey populations [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Capuchins can employ several strategies to deal with environmental challenges, such as using stone tools to access encapsulated resources. Nut-cracking is customary in several capuchin populations and can be affected by ecological and cultural factors ...

Wild capuchin monkeys use stones and sticks to access underground food [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Primates employ different tools and techniques to overcome the challenges of obtaining underground food resources. Humans and chimpanzees are known to tackle this problem with stick tools and one population of capuchin monkeys habitually uses stone tools.

Ingestive behaviors in bearded capuchins (Sapajus libidinosus). [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2020
AbstractThe biomechanical and adaptive significance of variation in craniodental and mandibular morphology in fossil hominins is not always clear, at least in part because of a poor understanding of how different feeding behaviors impact feeding system design (form–function relationships).

Microsatellite Markers for Bearded Capuchins (Sapajus libidinosus): Transferability and Characterization [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
Natural Sapajus libidinosus populations are in continuous decline due to fragmentation, habitat loss, and the illegal pet trade. They live in Caatinga scrub forests, which already lost over 50% of their original cover.

Insights into the evolutionary history of the most skilled tool-handling platyrrhini monkey: Sapajus libidinosus from the Serra da Capivara National Park [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2023
Sapajus libidinosus members of the Pedra Furada group, living in the Serra da Capivara National Park, use stone tools in a wider variety of behaviors than any other living animal, except humans.
