Titi monkey adenovirus Titi monkey adenovirus Titi monkey adenovirus (TMAdV) is an adenovirus first identified in a New World titi monkey of the genus "Callicebus", and the virus also infected to at least two humans. It is a large DNA-based virus which can cause death in monkeys, and respiratory illness has been recorded in humans. It was first discovered in Davis, California, at the California National Primate Research Center. The discovery of TMAdV was made by the laboratory of Charles Chiu and the UCSF-Abbott Viral Diagnostics and Discovery Center, using a DNA microarray test called the ViroChip that is able to detect all
Ornate titi thickets, tangles, thorny underbrushes and wet or even waterlogged areas. The ornate titi tends to sleep in vine tangles located on small branches of trees, generally preferring to be at least off of the ground. Like other members of the moloch group, the ornate titi is considered tolerant of seasonal flooding and disturbances within its habitat, and is commonly found living in areas of forest disturbed by humans, in particular thriving on highly disturbed habitats. However, due to the continuous expanding of human settlements and therefore declination of both the size and quality of the ornate titi’s habitat, the presence
