Anatomical Description of the Main Gyri and Sulci of the Telencephalon of Alouatta belzebul. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The Alouatta belzebul is a species of howler monkey, of the Atelidae family and genus Alouatta. It is endemic in Brazil and has a separate geographic distribution, with two populations occurring: in the Amazon and in the Atlantic Forest on the coast of Northeast Brazil. The species is classified as ‘vulnerable’, and this is mainly justified by

Taxonomic and sex differences in sagittal cresting among gracile and robust capuchin monkeys. [PDF]
In this study, I show that there are interspecific differences in the frequency and pattern of sagittal cresting among six capuchin species. Four of the six species show sagittal cresting, with Cebus capucinus showing a different sagittal cresting pattern to that observed in three robust capuchin species. All four crested species show sexual dimorphism

Contexts of Anointing Behavior in a Group of Blond Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus flavius) Inhabiting an Atlantic Forest Fragment. [PDF]
Wild blond capuchin anoints with millipede species that secrete a chemical capable of repelling ectoparasites, suggesting a self‐medicative function. Social and solitary anointing bouts occurred at similar frequencies, but with greater engagement by adult males, indicating that anointing is a multifunctional behavior.

Handedness is a fundamental human trait, although recent research, especially on nonhuman primates, has shown that it is displayed by other animals as well (e.g., chimpanzees, gorillas).

Electrocutions in Free-Ranging Platyrrhine Nonhuman Primates: Diagnostic Features for a Threatening Condition. [PDF]
Epidemiological and pathological features of electrocutions in free‐ranging new‐world monkeys. ABSTRACT Electrical accidents pose a considerable threat to wildlife in anthropized regions, particularly arboreal mammals, as evidenced by cases of electrocutions in nonhuman primates (NHPs). This study characterized the frequency, anatomic distribution, and

A free‐ranging capuchin monkey developed a synchronous biphasic pleural and peritoneal mesothelioma, a rare form of this tumor. Exophytic nodules were dispersed over the serosal surfaces, showing marked microscopical malignant features composed of both ...

Vocalizations Reveal Species Differences in Endangered Lion Tamarins (Primates, Callitrichidae). [PDF]
Spectral parameters of vocalizations distinguish lion tamarin species. Peak frequency, center frequency, and frequency at 5% and 95% were the most informative measures for separating species, with the trill being the vocalization that showed the most differences, and Leontopithecus caissara being the most distinct species of all.
