ABSTRACT. Eight specimens of Aotus from Argentina were studied. Their geographic distribution, pelage phenotype, diploid number, chromosome measurements and morphology and C-and G-banding patterns have been reported in the present work. Cytogenetic analysis with Giemsa showed 2N = 50 in the females and 2N = 49 in a male. C-and G-banding patterns differed from those published for owl monkeys from other geographic regions.
