description | <p>The American Museum of Natural History houses the skin of a tamarin (AMNH 98303) labelled as <i>Saguinus fuscicollis tripartitus</i>. However, the specimen does not match the phenotype of
this taxon, now named <i>Leontocebus tripartitus</i>, nor that of any other known species or subspecies of
<i>Leontocebus</i>. In this note, we review past taxonomic revisions of the genus
<i>Saguinus</i> – revisions that were largely driven by the contentious species or
subspecies status of the golden-mantled saddleback tamarin <i>S. fuscicollis tripartitus</i> – and compare the phenotype of AMNH 98303 with those of other tamarins in the same
genus to discuss the possible status of this specimen.</p> |
