Responses to Scent Marks in a Wild Group of <i>Leontocebus Weddelli</i>: Insights for Sexual Communication
In wild saddleback tamarins, scent marks from the adult breeding female elicited the highest response numbers and received the most overmarks from adult breeding males. Together, these findings sugge...

The Scent Gland Microbiomes of Wild Tamarins Provide New Insight Into Microbial Contributions to Olfactory Communication
Our study investigated the microbiomes of suprapubic and sternal scent glands in two wild tamarin species to explore their putative roles in odor production and communication. Using metagenomic seque...
