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
Biological pigment that are within the photosynthetic structure are more common, but complicated. Pigment-protein complexes that are outside of the photosynthetic system are less common, but have a simpler structure. For example, there are only two of these blue astaxanthin-proteins in the jellyfish, "Velella velella", contains only about 100 carotenoids per complex. A common carotenoid in animals is astaxanthin, which gives off a purple-blue and green pigment. Astaxanthin’s color is formed by creating complexes with proteins in a certain order. For example, the crustochrin has approximately 20 astaxanthin molecules bonded with protein. When the complexes interact by exciton-exciton interaction, it lowers the
