Kin-biased social behaviour in wild adult female white-faced capuchins, Cebus capucinus (2008, background): “Females of this species are philopatric whereas males disperse (Fedigan 1993; Jack & Fedigan 2004).”
Dispersal patterns in sympatric woolly and spider monkeys: integrating molecular and observational data (2009, background): “If individuals choose to disperse to groups into which close relatives have already transferred (‘parallel dispersal’: van Hooff, 2000), as has been reported for males in a variety of primates (e.g., vervets: Cheney & Seyfarth, 1983; capuchins: Jack and Fedigan, 2004; squirrel monkeys: Mitchell, 1”
Male dispersal patterns in white-faced capuchins, Cebus capucinus Part 2: patterns and causes of secondary dispersal (2004, background): “…capuchins are not estimated to attain sexual maturity until approximately 8 years of age (Freese & Oppenheimer 1981) and within our study groups, we have only once observed a juvenile male (an immigrant male aged 6e7 years) engage in sexual activities with group females (see Jack & Fedigan 2004).”
