<div class="tree_txt_unlinked"><p>Titi monkeys, <em>Callicebus</em>
are medium-sized frugivorous and folivorous primates. They are found
in Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela and Peru. Three species are recognized: <em>C. torquatus, C. moloch</em>, and <em>C. personatus</em>.
Anatomically, they are similar to Aotus. However, they have
relatively short snouts with simple molar teeth compared to other
platyrrhines. Behaviorally, these primates live in pair-bonded (often
termed "monogamous") groups, and duet to each other.</p>
