The lowest diploid number (2n = 16) yet found in any primate: Callicebus lugens (Humboldt, 1811)Cibele R Bonvicino
Division of Genetics, Instituto Nacional de Cancer, Praça da Cruz Vermelha 23, 6o andar, 20230 130 Rio de Haneiro, Brazil
Folia Primatol (Basel) 74:141-9. 2003..lugens has the lowest diploid chromosome number of the primate order (2n = 16). Comparisons with other congeneric species clearly supported the proposition that C. lugens is karyotypically similar to others of the torquatus group...
