Collared titi monkey

Mammals

Collared titi monkey (Cheracebus torquatus) is a titi monkey in the genus Cheracebus, family Pitheciidae, the New World monkeys that also include the other titis, the sakis and the uakaris. The Mammal Diversity Database credits the species name to (von Hoffmannsegg, 1807) and lists its country distribution as Brazil. It is endemic to northern Brazil. The database notes that the name torquatus now applies to the species that was previously known as Callicebus purinus, because the type locality and specimen of the collared titi proved to come from those populations. The Mammal Diversity Database gives its IUCN Red List status as Least Concern.
