Rabelo, R., Gonçalves, J., Silva, F., Rocha, D., Canale, G., Bernardo, C., & Boubli, J. (2020). Predicted distribution and habitat loss for the endangered black-faced black spider monkey Ateles chamek in the Amazon. Oryx, 54(5), 699-705. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0030605318000522

The rate of deforestation in the Amazon is increasing. Predictive models estimate that as a result of agricultural expansion 40% of these forests will be lost by 2050. As a consequence the habitat of forest-dwelling species such as the Endangered bla...

The taxonomy of the titi monkeys (Callicebinae) has recently received considerable attention. It is now recognised that this subfamily is composed of three genera with 33 species, seven of them described since 2002. Here, we describe a new species of...

The Roosevelt – Rondon expedition marmoset (Mico marcai) : unveiling the conservation status of a data deficient species (2018)
Journal Article

The Roosevelt-Rondon Expedition marmoset, Mico marcai, was collected in 1914 and to date, all information on this species comes from three skins brought back by the Expedition and two additional skins collected in the 1990s. It is no surprise then th... Read More about The Roosevelt – Rondon expedition marmoset (Mico marcai) : unveiling the conservation status of a data deficient species.

Titi monkey biogeography : parallel Pleistocene spread by Plecturocebus and Cheracebus into a post-Pebas Western Amazon (2018)
Journal Article

Titi monkeys, subfamily Callicebinae, are a diverse, species‐rich group of Neotropical primates with an extensive range across South America. Their distribution in space and time makes them an interesting primate model for addressing questions of Neo...

Phylogenetic relationships amongst the robust capuchin monkeys (genus Sapajus) are poorly understood. Morphology-based taxonomies have recognized anywhere from one to twelve different species. The current IUCN (2017) classification lists eight robust...

In search of a meaningful classification for Amazonian marmosets : should dwarf marmosets be considered Mico congenerics? (2018)
Journal Article

The criteria to classify the diversity of Neotropical Primates have recently taken the discussion boards due to the reappraisal on the phylogenetic relationship of some groups. Such controversial and arbitrary decisions, however, can hamper conservat...
