“…Many studies on Cebus libidinosus (Rylands et al, 2000) were aimed at the anatomy (Aversi- Ferreira et al, 2005aFerreira et al, , 2005bAversi-Ferreira et al, 2006;Aversi-Ferreira et al, 2007a, 2007bFerreira & Prada, 2001;Neto & Ferreira, 2002;Oliveira et al, 2000;Santini, 1983;Silva & Ferreira, 2002;Silva & Ferreira, 2003), cortical physiology (Lima et al, 2003), behavior and use of tools (Antinucci & Visalberghi, 1986;Auricchio, 1995;Breseida & Ottoni, 2001;Costello & Fragaszi, 1988;Garber, 1987;Lopes, 2004;Resende & Ottoni, 2002;Waga et al, 2006;Westergaard & Fragaszi, 1987), encephalic index (Paiva, 1998) and memory (Tavares & Tomaz, 2002), mainly because they present high cognition capacity and biological aspects that make them similar to Old World primates in relation to the use of tool (Mendes et al, 2000;Ottoni et al, 2001;Waga et al), social organization capacity based on information transmission and learning on their behavior (Resende et al, 2003).…”
