Atlantic titi barrier such as a river and are thus completely genetically isolated from one another). Distinctions between each of the "Callicebus" subspecies are based on coat color. The evolution of these coat colors is termed metachromism. The pigments are produced by melanocytes which deposit the pigments into the medulla of growing hair so that the hair grows with the color of that distinct pigment. The characteristic pigment of the "Callicebus" is eumelanin (dark brown or black) found in the iris, skin, and hair (usually on the forehead, crown and tail). Atlantic titis are opportunistic feeders. In other words, they eat based
Pigment purposes, including camouflage, mimicry, aposematism (warning), sexual selection and other forms of signalling, photosynthesis (in plants), as well as basic physical purposes such as protection from sunburn. Pigment color differs from structural color in that pigment color is the same for all viewing angles, whereas structural color is the result of selective reflection or iridescence, usually because of multilayer structures. For example, butterfly wings typically contain structural color, although many butterflies have cells that contain pigment as well. Pigment A pigment is a material that changes the color of reflected or transmitted light as the result of wavelength-selective absorption. This
