The Amazonian landscape evolution is the result of the combined effect of Andean
tectonism, climate and the Earth's interior dynamics. To reconstruct the landscape evolution …

A clade's evolutionary history is shaped, in part, by geographical range expansion,
sweepstakes dispersal and local extinction. A rigorous understanding of historical …

Conservation genetics is the use of genetics to understand and mitigate the threats caused
by anthropogenic activities, including habitat loss and fragmentation, wildlife trafficking, and …

Habitual reliance on tool use is a marked behavioural difference between wild robust (genus
Sapajus) and gracile (genus Cebus) capuchin monkeys. Despite being well studied and …

Abstract Knowledge of the feeding habits of primate species is important for an
understanding of their natural history and ecological interactions between their groups, and …

We identify key interdisciplinary questions and approaches to understanding the
paleogeographic and biotic history of Amazonia. We discuss the importance of comparing …

Recently published time-calibrated molecular phylogenies have brought to light a large-
scale biotic interchange between the Western and Eastern Amazon basins, associated with …

Robust capuchin monkeys, Sapajus genus, are among the most phenotypically diverse and
widespread groups of primates in South America, with one of the most confusing and often …

Abstract Aim Present Amazonian diversity patterns can result from many different
mechanisms and, consequently, the factors contributing to divergence across regions and/or …

Phylogenetic relationships amongst the robust capuchin monkeys (genus Sapajus) are
poorly understood. Morphology-based taxonomies have recognized anywhere from one to …
