Abstract Muriquis, genus Brachyteles Spix, 1823, are the largest of the extant New World primates, and they are one of the three extant genera of the subfamily Atelinae along with Ateles (spider monkeys) and Lagothrix (wooly monkeys). The taxonomy of Brachyteles has constantly changed since its first description in the 19th century. First treated as a monotypic genus, and after several modifications in the number of species, Brachyteles currently contains two species, B. arachnoides (Southern muriqui) and B. hypoxanthus (Northern muriqui). The morphological evidence for this taxonomic arrangement relies on two diagnostic characters: the occurrence of a black-pigmented face and the absence of the first digit (thumb) in Southern muriqui populations vs. mottled face and fully-developed thumb in Northern muriqui populations. In addition, the phylogenetic relationship between atelines is disputed: on the one hand, the molecular evidence suggests an (Ateles (Brachyteles + Lagothrix)) clade and, on the other, most morphological evidence supports a clade (Lagothrix (Ateles + Brachyteles)) based on the high degree of postcranial and locomotory resemblances between Ateles and Brachyteles. My aims here are: 1) to verify how many taxa at the species level group there are in Brachyteles, and 2) to estimate the phylogenetic relationships among Atelinae using morphological characters. To achieve these goals, I have performed a qualitative analysis of external morphological characters as the presence or absence of the thumb, pelage coloration, and face pigmentation to test sexual dimorphism or dichromatism and intrapopulational variation. I also performed linear and geometric morphometrics analyses to test sexual dimorphism and geographical variation in both size and shape of the skull. Finally, I carried out a morphological phylogeny using 74 discrete morphological characters, two ecological and one karyological. This analysis includes 11 species of extant and fossil atelids and the outgroup was composed of Sapajus nigritus and Callicebus personatus. The analysis of the pelage coloration reveals that there is no sexual dimorphism or dichromatism in Brachyteles; besides, the pelage presents a high degree of individual variation.

    Diets of Howler Monkeys

    Chapter 2 Diets of Howler Monkeys Pedro Américo D. Dias and Ariadna Rangel-Negrín Abstract Based on a bibliographical review, we examined the diets of howler mon- keys to compile a comprehensive overview of their food resources and document dietary diversity. Additionally, we analyzed the effects of rainfall, group size, and forest size on dietary variation. Howlers eat nearly all available plant parts in their habitats. Time dedicated to the consumption of different food types varies among species and populations, such that feeding behavior can range from high folivory to high frugivory. Overall, howlers were found to use at least 1,165 plant species, belonging to 479 genera and 111 families as food sources. Similarity in the use of plant taxa as food sources (assessed with the Jaccard index) is higher within than between howler species, although variation in similarity is higher within species. Rainfall patterns, group size, and forest size affect several dimensions of the dietary habits of howlers, such that, for instance, the degree of frugivory increases with increased rainfall and habitat size, but decreases with increasing group size in groups that live in more productive habitats. Moreover, the range of variation in dietary habits correlates positively with variation in rainfall, suggesting that some howler species are habitat generalists and have more variable diets, whereas others are habi- tat specialists and tend to concentrate their diets on certain plant parts. Our results highlight the high degree of dietary fl exibility demonstrated by the genus Alouatta and provide new insights for future research on howler foraging strategies. Resumen Con base en una revisión bibliográfi ca, examinamos las dietas de los monos aulladores para describir exhaustivamente sus recursos alimenticios y la diversidad de su dieta.

The results suggest three groups emerging almost at the same time: Atelidae, Pitheciidae and Cebidae. The total analysis strongly supports the monophyly of the Cebidae family, group- ing Aotus, Cebus and Saimiri with the small callitrichines. In the callitrichines, the data link Cebuela to Callithrix, place Callimico as a sister group of Callithrix/Cebuella, and show Saguinus to be the earliest offshoot of the callitrichines. In the family Pithecidae, Callicebus is the basal genus. Finally, combined molecular data showed congruent branching in the atelid clade, setting up Alouatta as the basal lineage and Brachyteles-Lagothrix as a sister group and the most derived branch.

Heymann The taxonomy of the yellow-tailed woolly monkey has been a matter of some discussion. First described as Simia flavicauda by Humboldt in 1812, it was again described by Thomas (1927a) as Lagothrix (Oreonax) hendeii a century later. Later in the same year, after receiving a new juvenile specimen, Thomas (1927b) elevated the subgenus Oreonax to full generic status. In his revision of the woolly monkeys, Fooden (1963) found that S. flavicauda and O. hendeii were actually the same species and very closed related to Lagothrix, and he thus named it Lagothrix flavicauda. Groves (2001) revised some available skulls and found it more closely related to Ateles, and consequently separated flavicauda from Lagothrix, and revived Thomas’ old genus Oreonax. Most recently, Matthews and Rosenberger (2008a, 2008b) revised Groves’ work and found evidence for a “misclassification because a heuristic measure of statistical support has without taking into account current deforested areas been misconstrued as a biological and phylogenetic and human settlements, to be 41,446 km2. In 1981, it characteristic”, and therefore argued against the was estimated that the potential forested habitat was validity of Oreonax as a genus.
