Research Abstract

In the fiscal year 1990, the field survey "Phylogenetic Study of South American Monkeys" was carried out to research on both extinct and extant monkeys in Colombia, Peru and Brazil. Especially in La Venta Area of Colombia, the survey succeeded in discovering a well preserved mandible with almost completed teeth, as well as more than 200 isolated teeth belonging to about 10 individuals from the Middle Miocene layers. They are much allied to the extant squirrel monkeys, Saimiri, but clearly different from the latter in having larger molars, but smaller incisors. They are to be described and illustrated in an international journal. Furthermore, in close contact with Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Geologico-Mineras, Colombia, the geological mapping and absolute age determination were conducted, as seen in Kyoto Univ. Overseas Research Reports of New World Monkeys, VIII.
In several museums of Brazil, Peru and Colombia, the skeletal samples of extant monkeys were intensively observed and measured, in order to confirm the inter- and intra-specific variations of morphology and also to compare the extinct monkeys with the extant in characteristic features of tooth. These data are now statistically examined to clarify the phylogenetic relations of South American monkeys.
