Excellent capture. They can be quite hard to photograph. On a side note, thanks for sharing so much with us and for taking the time to identify species. I hope you're enjoying the process and the site. Posted 12 years ago

The Pygmy marmoset

The pygmy marmoset is a small New World monkey native to rainforests of the western Amazon Basin in South America. It is notable for being the smallest monkey and one of the smallest primates in the world at just over 100 grams. It is generally found in evergreen and river edge forests and is a gum-feeding specialist.
