The neotropical primate family Pitheciidae consists of four genera
Cacajao (uacaris), Callicebus (titis), Chiropotes (bearded sakis)
and Pithecia (sakis), whose 40+ species display a range of sizes,
social organisations, ecologies and habitats. Few are well known
and the future survival of many is threatened, yet pitheciines have
been little studied. This book is the first to review the biology
of this fascinating and diverse group in full. It includes fossil
history, reviews of the biology of each genus and, among others,
specific treatments of vocalisations and foraging ecology. These
studies are integrated into considerations of current status and
future conservation requirements on a country-by-country basis for
each species. A state-of-the-art summary of current knowledge,
Evolutionary Biology and Conservation of Titis, Sakis and Uacaris
is a collective effort from all the major researchers currently
working on these remarkable animals.
