SPECIES Callicebus (Callicebus) cupreus
Author: | Spix, 1823. | Citation: | Sim. Vespert. Brasil.: 23. | Common Name: | Coppery Titi | Type Locality: | Brazil, Rio Solimões, Tabatinga. | Distribution: | South of the Amazon from Rio Purús to Rio Ucayali, Brazil and Peru; probably Bolivia. | Status: | CITES – Appendix II; IUCN – Lower Risk (lc). | Comments: | Subgenus Callicebus. C. cupreus species group. Includes caligata, discolor and dubius according to Groves (1992, 2001c), who argued that, if the distributions are sympatric, as mapped by Hershkovitz (1990), then all these are likely to be colour morphs; but according to van Roosmalen et al. (2002), the distributions given by Hershkovitz are incorrect, and they are vicariant and hence represent differentiated taxa. |
