Article Synopsis
- * Researchers collected over 230 fecal samples and analyzed mitochondrial DNA, revealing two distinct genetic groups for northern (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) and southern muriquis (B. arachnoides) with a significant genetic difference.
- * Findings suggest that northern and southern muriquis should be treated as separate sister species for conservation, as both are critically endangered and require specialized protection strategies.
