cebidae

It is a member of the family Cebidae.

It was formerly included in the family Cebidae.

The diet of the capuchins is more varied than other monkeys in the family Cebidae.

The Cebidae is one of the five families of New World monkeys now recognised.

At times this group of animals has been regarded as a subfamily, called Callitrichinae, of the family Cebidae.

Family Cebidae: capuchins and squirrel monkeys (17 species)

Previously classified in the family Cebidae, they are now placed in the family Atelidae.

The gracile capuchins, like all capuchins, are members of the family Cebidae, which also includes the squirrel monkeys.

Within the family Cebidae, it is a member of the subfamily Saimiriinae, the subfamily containing squirrel monkeys.

Examples of species that can be categorized under this type of social organization include many diurnal lemurs, langurs, and most members of the family Cebidae.

The Ecuadorian capuchin (Cebus albifrons aequatorialis) is a capuchin monkey of the genus Cebidae.

The white-headed capuchin (Cebus capucinus) is a medium-sized New World monkey of the family Cebidae, subfamily Cebinae.

He had published on primates earlier, but did not give them special attention until the 1960s, when grant opportunities persuaded him to begin studying them, first Callitrichidae and later Cebidae.

It is a member of the family Cebidae, the family of New World monkeys containing capuchin monkeys, squirrel monkeys, tamarins and marmosets.

A new species of capuchin monkey, genus Cebus Erxleben, 1777 (Cebidae: Primates) from Eastern Brazilian Amazonia.

The common squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus) is a small New World primate from the Cebidae (squirrel monkey) family, and native to the tropical areas of South America.

New World monkeys are the five families of primates that are found in Central and South America: Callitrichidae, Cebidae, Aotidae, Pitheciidae, and Atelidae.

In older classification schemes it was sometimes placed in its own family Callimiconidae and sometimes along with the marmosets and tamarins in the subfamily Callitrichinae in the family Cebidae.

For a few recent years, marmosets, tamarins, and lion tamarins were placed as a subfamily (Callitrichinae) in Cebidae, while moving other genera from Cebidae into the families Aotidae, Pitheciidae and Atelidae.

In 2001, Colin Groves included the Callitrichids in the family Cebidae, which also includes capuchin monkeys and squirrel monkeys, but in 2009 Anthony Rylands and Russell Mittermeier reverted to older classifications which considered Callitrichidae a separate family.
