...; Mika Peck; Jennifer Rey-Goyeneche; Denise Spaan; Vincent Nijman The international trade in night monkeys ( Aotus spp.), found throughout Central and South America, has been regulated by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) since 1975. We present...

...Jay P. Jefferson; Elizabeth Tapanes; Sian Evans Several species of primates, including owl monkeys ( Aotus spp.), anoint by rubbing their fur with odiferous substances. Previous research has shown that capuchin monkeys (Cebus and Sapajus) anoint socially by rubbing their bodies together in groups...

...H.G. Erkert; J. Gröber The activity pattern of Aotus lemurinus griseimembra can be predictably altered by varying the illuminance during the dark phase of a 12:12-hour light:dark rhythm. Intensities well below full-moon brightness (0.1–0.5 1x) severely inhibit activity. This modulation...

...Rüdiger Klein; Bärbel Bleiholder; Albrecht Jung; Hans G. Erkert Diurnal variations in normal hemogram, total serum protein and serum iron are documented in 6 adult owl monkeys, Aotus trivirgatus gríseimembra, maintained in an artificial LD 12:12 (35:0.08 1x) with light phase from 03.00 to 15.00 h...

...J. Hunter; R.D. Martin; A.F. Dixson; B.C.C. Rudder A single, timed mating indicated a gestation period of 133 days for Aotus trivirgatus griseimembra . This figure is confirmed by approximate correspondence with minimum inter-birth intervals, results from radioimmunoassay of urinary oestrogens...

...Patricia C. Wright Findings are presented from a 9-week field study on Aotus trivirgatus in continuous primary, tropical forest in Peru. One group of 2 adults and 2 juveniles utilized the same lodge area in the center of a home range of 3.1 ha for the duration of the study. The group utilized...

..., situated caudal to the internarium is not involved in platyrrhinism. Aotus and Alouatta are, according to the definition, truely platyrrhine. The division of the higher primates into Platyrrhina and Catarrhina is justified. The anterior surface of the internarium (sinus hairs) is a sensorial area. 10...

...R.A. Brumback; D.O. Willenborg Recent studies have suggested that two groups of the genus Aotus (griseimembra and trivirgatus) should be classified as separate species on the basis of coat coloration and karyotypic differences. Immunologic studies of the serum proteins of these two groups were...

The term now generally employed to describe the exploitation of both diurnal and nocturnal phases in primates is ‘cathemeral’. Cathemerality has been documented in one haplorhine, the owl monkey, Aotus azarai...

We also found a close relationship between Cebus and Aotus, with Saimiri clustering with the atelines. Haplotype diversity was found in four of the species...
