title: The Callimico goeldii (Primates, Platyrrhini) genome: karyology and middle repetitive (LINE-1) DNA sequences.
abstract: Callimico goeldii (Goeldi's marmoset) is a neotropical primate with 2n = 47,X1X2Y in the male, and 2n = 48,X1X1X2X2 in the female, due to a Y-autosome translocation. Karyological comparisons of Callimico, Callithrix jacchus and Cebus apella suggest that Callimico is a member of the Callitrichidae. Isozyme data and restriction mapping of LINE-1 repetitive elements in these species and in a variety of other neotropical primates confirm these findings and supply strong evidence for including Callimico in the Callitrichidae.
