title: Proceptive displays of the female common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus): effects of ovariectomy and oestradiol 17 beta.
abstract: Proceptivity in the common marmoset consisted of brief periods when females remained with body and limbs immobile (IM) or crouched, and then stared, lipsmacked and tongue-flicked at males. Treatment of ovariectomized females with oestradiol activated all these proceptive displays but did not influence the combinations in which they occurred during IM periods.
