Titi monkey adenovirus known as well as novel viruses. The virus is genetically different from any other adenovirus, and the origin or reservoir for TMAdV is still unknown. The significance of the discovery lies in the fact that adenovirus infections have always been thought to be species-specific, and the existence of adenoviruses that can infect both monkeys and humans raises the possibility of zoonotic transmission of adenoviruses. 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
White-eared titi species within the genus "Plecturocebus". Although the exact position of species within the genus "Plecturocebus" in the "P. donacophilus" group with the Rio Beni titi ("P. modestus"), Rio Mayo titi ("P. oenanthe"), Ollala brothers' titi ("P. olallae"), and white-coated titi ("P. pallescens"). The white-coated titi has sometimes been considered a subspecies of the white-eared titi, but they are treated as separate species in the latest edition of Mammal Species of the World. The white-eared titi is a medium-sized primate with grey to orange pelage. The species does not exhibit sexual dimorphism; the male's head and body length averages while females
