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
Coimbra Filho's titi fragment of the population, limiting reproductive options. The species' natural geographical distribution also contributes a threat to the species. Coimbra Filho's titi only naturally occurs in the Atlantic coastal forests in northeastern Brazil. This is a relatively small area in the states of Sergipe and Bahia. Due to this small range, any disturbances to these areas pose a larger than normal threat to the species' survival. More than anything else, however, human interference is the source of many problems to Coimbra Filho's titi. The areas around and inside its habitat are being developed, including paving roads and the promotion of
