New research presented in this special issue of Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution on the “Phylogeny and Biogeography of Neotropical Primates” greatly improves our understanding of the evolutionary history of the New World monkeys and provides ins...

Biogeography of squirrel monkeys (genus Saimiri): South-central Amazon origin and rapid pan-Amazonian diversification of a lowland primate (2014)
Journal Article
Lynch Alfaro, J., Boubli, J., Paim, F., Ribas, C., Silva, M., Messias, M., …Farias, I. (2015). Biogeography of squirrel monkeys (genus Saimiri): South-central Amazon origin and rapid pan-Amazonian diversification of a lowland primate.

The squirrel monkey, Saimiri, is a pan-Amazonian Pleistocene radiation. We use statistical phylogeographic methods to create a mitochondrial DNA-based timetree for 118 squirrel monkey samples across 68 localities spanning all Amazonian centers of end...

Spatial and temporal patterns of diversification on the Amazon : a test of the riverine hypothesis for all diurnal primates of Rio Negro and Rio Branco in Brazil (2014)
Journal Article
Boubli, J., Ribas, C., Lynch Alfaro, J., Alfaro, M., Da Silva, M., Pinho, G., & Farias, I. (2015). Spatial and temporal patterns of diversification on the Amazon : a test of the riverine hypothesis for all diurnal primates of Rio Negro and Rio Branco in Brazil. Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 82(Part B), 400-412. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ympev.2014.09.005

The role of Amazonian rivers as drivers of speciation through vicariance remains controversial. Here we explore the riverine hypothesis by comparing spatial and temporal concordances in pattern of diversification for all diurnal primates of Rio Negro...

Mixed-species groups of marmosets and Tamarins across a gradient of agroforestry intensification (2014)
Journal Article
Tisovec, K., Cassano, C., Boubli, J., & Pardini, R. (2014). Mixed-species groups of marmosets and Tamarins across a gradient of agroforestry intensification. Biotropica, 46(2), 248-255. https://doi.org/10.1111/btp.12098

Polyspecific associations are commonly observed in social animals, including primates, and have been interpreted as adaptations either to improve access to resources or to provide protection against predators. Mixed-species associations between Wied'... Read More about Mixed-species groups of marmosets and Tamarins across a gradient of agroforestry intensification.
