The Cebidae form one of the four familes of New World monkeys now recognised. It includes the marmosets, tamarins, capuchins and squirrel monkeys.

Classification

Previously, New World monkeys were divided between the Callitrichidae and this family, but modern classifications place the genera from Callitrichidae as a subfamily in Cebidae (named Hapalinae), while moving other genera into the other families. As it is most widely recognised today, Cebidae includes six genera organised into three subfamilies, though one of these genera is currently purely formal in that it contains only a single species.
