Titi Titi The titis, or titi monkeys, are the New World monkeys of the subfamily Callicebinae, which contains three extant genera, "Cheracebus", "Callicebus", and "Plecturocebus." This subfamily also contains the extinct genera "Xenothrix, Antillothrix", "Paralouatta, Carlocebus, Lagonimico", and possibly also "Tremacebus". Titis live in South America, from Colombia to Brazil, Bolivia, Peru and northern Paraguay. Depending on species, titis have a head and body length of , and a tail, which is longer than the head and body, of . The different titi species vary substantially in coloring, but resemble each other in most other physical ways. They have long, soft
Collared titi least two species in this complex. But whether the Lucifer titi, "Cheracebus lucifer", or the Colombian black-handed titi, "Cheracebus medemi", are good species from this complex is in doubt. They are probably subspecies of "Cheracebus torquatus". Nevertheless, in this treatment "C. torquatus" is used in the sense of Hershkovitz (1990) until the systematics of this species complex becomes clearer. Five adults weighed an average of 1462 g (range 1410–1722 g) with a head-body length of around 290–390 mm and a tail length of about 350–400 mm. The face has very little hair, being limited to sparse short white hairs over
