Explosive Pleistocene range expansion leads to widespread Amazonian sympatry between robust and gracile capuchin monkeys (2011)
Journal Article
Lynch Alfaro, J., Boubli, J., Olson, L., Di Fiore, A., Wilson, B., Gutiérrez-Espeleta, G., …Alfaro, M. (2012). Explosive Pleistocene range expansion leads to widespread Amazonian sympatry between robust and gracile capuchin monkeys. Journal of Biogeography, 39(2), 272-288. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2699.2011.02609.x

Aim Capuchin monkey species are widely distributed across Central and South America. Morphological studies consistently divide the clade into robust and gracile forms, which show extensive sympatry in the Amazon Basin. We use genetic data to test...

Journal Article
Boubli, J., Couto-Santos, F., & Strier, K. (2011). Structure and floristic composition of one of the last forest fragments containing the critically endangered Northern Muriqui (Brachyteles Hypoxanthus, Primates). Ecotropica (Bonn), 17(2), 53-69

This study presents results from the first systematic botanical investigation of the RPPN Feliciano Miguel Abdala (RPPN-FMA, formerly Caratinga Biological Station), a semi-deciduous forest fragment in southeastern Brazil that supports nearly a thir...

Genetic diversity and population history of a critically endangered primate, the Northern Muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) (2011)
Journal Article
Kolokotronis, S., Chaves, P., Alvarenga, C., Possamai, C., Dias, L., Boubli, J., …Fagundes, V. (2011). Genetic diversity and population history of a critically endangered primate, the Northern Muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus). PLoS ONE, 6(6), e20722. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0020722

Social, ecological, and historical processes affect the genetic structure of primate populations, and therefore have key implications for the conservation of endangered species. The northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) is a critically endangere...
