Capuchin monkeys (genera Cebus and Sapajus) show a wide range distribution, from Honduras to Argentina. The aim of this work was to evaluate the genetic and phenotypic variability of captive specimens putatively belonging to S. cay (SCY) and S. nigritus (SNI) at their southernmost distribution limit. Forty-four individuals held in five captive centers from Argentina were analyzed based on external morphology, karyology and DNA sequences of mitochondrial control region (mtDNA-CR). Three morphotypes associated with their probable geographical origin in SCY and a single morphotype in SNI were found. For SCY we could associate each morphotype with the most frequent karyotype. SNI showed a single phenotype and a homogenous karyotype. Heterochromatin showed geographical patterns within species. A 515-bp mtDNA-CR fragment was sequenced, defining fourteen haplotypes at 59 polymorphic sites. A network constructed with our 14 haplotypes and other 77 from S. apella, S. macrocephalus, S. cay and S. nigritus from bibliography revealed some phylogeographic signals. Our SCY and SNI samples rendered four groups that differed in multiple mutational steps, with SCY being more similar to S. apella than to S. macrocephalus. Also, we identified two genetic divergent SCY groups: samples from NOA and from NEA with high mitochondrial diversity. Our results highlight the relevance of using complementary genetic tools throughout the distribution ranges of SCY and SNI for a better assessment of their diversity.

“…Husson (1957Husson ( , 1978, Eisenberg (1989), Groves (1993, in press) and Emmons and Feer (1997), and a number of recent authors who have studied this animal in the wild (for example, Fragaszy, 1986;Robinson, 1986Robinson, , 1988Miller, 1996Miller, , 1998 refer to the Guiana wedge-capped capuchin as Cebus olivaceus. A recent study of the chromosomes of a Venezuelan form of this species refers to it as C. nigrivittatus (see Martinez et al, 1999). It would seem likely, however, that the correct name is C. griseus.…”

An understanding of the full diversity of the primates is vital for priority-setting for conservation purposes, both for captive breeding and in situ conservation measures. Here we provide a full, annotated listing of the Neotropical primate species and subspecies resulting from a workshop, “Primate Taxonomy for the New Millennium”, which brought together experts in primate taxonomy and biogeography, morphologists and geneticists. It was organized by the IUCN/SSC Primate Specialist Group (PSG) and held at the Disney Institute, Orlando, Florida, in February 2000. The list separates the Platyrrhini into five families (Callitrichidae, Cebidae, Aotidae, Pitheciidae and Atelidae), 18 genera (Cebuella, Mico, Callithrix, Saguinus, Leontopithecus, Callimico, Saimiri, Cebus, Aotus, Callicebus, Pithecia, Chiropotes, Cacajao, Alouatta, Ateles, Lagothrix, Oreonax and Brachyteles), 110 species, and 205 species and subspecies.
