Callithrix (Mico) emiliae Thomas 1920

Callithrix (Mico) emiliae Thomas 1920 , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 9, 6: 209.

Type Locality: Brazil, Rio Curua, Maloca.

Vernacular Names: Emilia's Marmoset.

Distribution: The interfluvium of the Rios Tapajos and Iriri, north to Maica, on the lower Tapajos, where perhaps sympatric with C. argentata ( Brazil).

Conservation: CITES – Appendix II; IUCN – Least Concern as Mico emiliae .

Discussion: Subgenus Mico . A different species, so far undescribed, from between the Rios Ji-Parana and Beni, in Rondonia, has been referred to as C. emiliae but is likely to be distinct ( Rylands et al., 1993). Recognized as a full species by De Vivo (1985) and Coimbra-Filho (1990).
