“…After five years, the last list of mammals occurring in Brazil (Percequillo & Gregorin 2017) presented a total of 721 species. During the short period of two years between the publication of Percequillo & Gregorin (2017) list and the annotated checklist herein presented, 15 new taxa were described (Miranda et al 2018, Pavan et al 2017, Quintela et al 2017, Pavan et al 2018, Voss et al 2018, Boubli et al 2019, Pavan 2019, Peçanha et al 2019, Velazco & Patterson 2019, Costa-Araújo et al 2019, Abreu-Júnior & Percequillo 2019, most of them supported by genetic analyses.

An updated and annotated checklist of mammals occurring in Brazil is presented. A total of 751 native species, distributed in 249 genera, families and 11 orders were recorded to the country. The Brazilian mammalian fauna shows an elevated rate of endemism (30%; 223 species). Among the species evaluated by IUCN (668 species; 90%), a total of 80 (10.6% of total mammalian fauna) are Threatened, 28 (3.9%) are considered as Near Threatened, two species (0.3%) are presumable Extinct, 96 (12.8%) are considered with Defi cient Data for conservation and 462 (61.6%) are considered as Least Concern. Fifteen new species were described since the last national compilation (published in 2017), which associated to new records to the country and synonimizations resulted in an increment of 30 species. Eight non-native species were introduced to the country, including the recently established Asiatic cervids Rusa unicolor (sambar) and Axis axis (chital). Seven native species (fi ve primates and two hystricomorph rodents) have been translocated from their areas of natural occurrence to other areas inside the country.

“…For example, Carneiro et al (2016) maintained a single genus ( Callicebus ) consisting of two species groups (Amazonian and Atlantic Forest). They found that the Atlantic Forest titis are a monophyletic group and well documented as distinct from Amazonian titis, although there is less agreement on interspecific relationships and the number of taxa in Amazonia (e.g., Boubli et al, 2019; van Roosmalen, van Roosmalen, & Mittermeier, 2002).

Historical antecedents and recent innovations in pitheciid (titi, saki, and uakari) feeding ecology

The modern pitheciids (titis, sakis, and uakaris) of northern South America represent one of the earliest radiations of platyrrhines and demonstrate morphological adaptations and ecological strategies for seed eating. While seeds can provide reliable resources for relatively long periods of time, they are often well protected by thick husks and hard seed coverings. Seeds also tend to be rich in lipids, but they may also be high in indigestible fiber. Even though seed eaters are found in each major primate radiation, only the pitheciids demonstrate primary adaptations for eating seeds. In this partly historical, partly contemporary review, I examine the ecological and anatomical correlates of seed eating. It is dedicated to two wellknown field primatologists: ecologist and conservationist J. Márcio Ayres; and anatomist and ecologist Warren G. Kinzey. Using observations in Kinzey (1992, Am J Phys Anthropol, 88, pp. 499-514) as a framework, I provide context and analysis for the intervening three decades of pitheciid research to identify what we know about this understudied group of primates and propose directions for future work.

Foamy viruses (FVs) are the only exogenous retrovirus to date known to infect neotropical primates (NPs). In the last decade, an increasing number of strains have been completely or partially sequenced, and molecular evolution analyses have identified an ancient co-speciation with their hosts. In this review, the improvement of diagnostic techniques that allowed the determination of a more accurate prevalence of simian FVs (SFVs) in captive and free-living NPs is discussed. Determination of DNA viral load in American primates indicates that oral tissues are the viral replicative site and that buccal swab collection can be an alternative to diagnose SFV infection in NPs. Finally, the transmission potential of NP SFVs to primate workers in zoos and primate centers of the Americas is examined.
