Coppery Titi – Callicebus cupreus

Callicebus cupreusSpix, 1823

Accepted name, Mammal Species of the World 2005

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.
