The pygmy marmoset, Cebuella pygmaea, the smallest of the New World monkeys, has one of the largest geographical distributions of the Amazonian primates. Two forms have been recognized: Cebuella pygmaea pygmaea (Spix, 1823), and C. p. niveiventris Lö... Read More about How many Pygmy Marmoset (Cebuella Gray, 1870) species are there?

New World primates feature a complex colour vision system. Most species have polymorphic colour vision where males have a dichromatic colour perception and females can be either ichromatic or trichromatic. The adaptive value of high allelic diversity...

Capuchin monkey biogeography : understanding Sapajus Pleistocene range expansion and the current sympatry between Cebus and Sapajus (2017)
Journal Article
Lima, M., Buckner, J., Silva-Júnior, J., Aleixo, A., Martins, A., Boubli, J., …Lynch Alfaro, J. (2017). Capuchin monkey biogeography : understanding Sapajus Pleistocene range expansion and the current sympatry between Cebus and Sapajus. Journal of Biogeography, 44(4), 810-820. https://doi.org/10.1111/jbi.12945

Aim:
Our aim was to examine gracile capuchin (Cebus) and robust capuchin monkey (Sapajus) diversification, with a focus on recent Sapajus expansion within Amazonia. We wanted to reconstruct the biogeographical history of the clade using statistical...
