Mapping nut‐cracking in a new population of wild capuchin monkeys ( Sapajus libidinosus ) at Ubajara National Park, Brazil
Populations of bearded capuchin monkeys ( Sapajus libidinosus ) vary in their tool use behaviors, with some of this divergence regarded as culturally determined. The use of stone tools, primarily to crack open encased foods, is widespread among bearded capuchins living in dry habitats ( Caatinga and Cerrado ). Significant diversity in targets, processed foods, material, and size of tools is observed across populations. However, so far, only a few…

Rare Bearded Capuchin (Sapajus libidinosus) Tool-Use Culture is Threatened by Land use Changes in Northeastern Brazil
Food or threat? Wild capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) as both predators and prey of snakes
Predatory threat of harpy eagles for yellow-breasted capuchin monkeys in the Atlantic Forest
Anointing variation across wild capuchin populations: A review of material preferences, bout frequency and anointing sociality in Cebus and Sapajus
The frequency of anointing bouts and the materials used for self‐ and social anointing vary across capuchin species in captivity, but there is little published data on capuchin anointing in the wild. Here we present previously unpublished data on anointing behaviors from capuchin monkey populations at ten different field sites and incorporate these data into a review of the anointing literature for captive and wild capuchins. Using a comparative …
Flexible and conservative features of social systems in tufted capuchin monkeys: Comparing the socioecology of Sapajus libidinosus and Sapajus nigritus
Socioecological models assume that primates adapt their social behavior to ecological conditions, and predict that food availability and distribution, predation risk and risk of infanticide by males affect patterns of social organization, social structure and mating system of primates. However, adaptability and variation of social behavior may be constrained by conservative adaptations and by phylogenetic inertia. The comparative study of closely…
Fallback foraging as a way of life: Using dietary toughness to compare the fallback signal among capuchins and implications for interpreting morphological variation
The genus Cebus is one of the best extant models for examining the role of fallback foods in primate evolution. Cebus includes the tufted capuchins, which exhibit skeletal features for the exploitation of hard and tough foods. Paradoxically, these seemingly “specialized” taxa belong to the most ubiquitous group of closely related primates in South America, thriving in a range of different habitats. This appears to be a consequence of their abilit…

Cross‐genus adoption of a marmoset ( Callithrix jacchus ) by wild capuchin monkeys ( Cebus libidinosus ): Case report
We report a case of interspecies adoption of an infant marmoset ( Callithrix jacchus ) by wild capuchin monkeys ( Cebus libidinosus ). The marmoset was an infant when it was first observed in the capuchin group on 3 March 2004. Since it first appeared it has been observed informally and frequently. In January 2005 systematic observations were made of the marmoset and a capuchin of similar age. Throughout its period of adoption the marmoset appear…
Emotional and Sexual Jealousy as a Function of Sex and Sexual Orientation in a Brazilian Sample
The goal of the present study was to compare the relative distress of homosexual and heterosexual Brazilian men and women on scenarios in which they imagined their partners sexually or emotionally involved with another person, using a forced-choice paradigm and continuous measures. Participants were 68 heterosexual men, 72 heterosexual women, 42 homosexual men, and 35 homosexual women. On the forced-choice questions heterosexual men (39 on one qu…
