Panamanian white-faced capuchin

The Panamanian white-faced capuchin (Cebus imitator) is a medium-sized New World monkey of the family Cebidae, subfamily Cebinae, native to the forests of Central America. It is mostly black with a pink face and white on much of the front of the body, and it carries a prehensile tail that it often coils and uses to support itself when feeding beneath a branch. Adults weigh up to 3.9 kg. It lives in many types of forest and eats fruit, other plant material, invertebrates and small vertebrates, which makes it an important seed and pollen disperser in rainforest ecology. Troops average 16 individuals, about three quarters of them females. It is known for tool use and for rubbing plants over its body, and its recorded maximum age is over 54 years. Until the 21st century it was treated as a subspecies of Cebus capucinus, and a 2012 study estimated that the two split up to 2 million years ago.
