White marmoset

Mammals

The white marmoset (Mico leucippe), also called the golden-white bare-ear marmoset, is a species of marmoset, a small monkey that is endemic to the Amazon rainforest in Pará, Brazil. The species was described by Oldfield Thomas in 1922 and is placed in the genus Mico. The Wikipedia article is a short stub that gives its alternative common name and its range, and its infobox records an IUCN status of Least Concern. Its article links the Wikispecies entry Callithrix leucippe, an older genus placement. Further details of its diet, behaviour and population are not stated in the article.
