Cotton-Top Tamarin Saguinus oedipus
Golden-Handed Tamarin Saguinus midas

Up to the 1980s, the Cotton-top Tamarin was thought to occur from Costa Rica south to northern Colombia. By 1992, it could be found only in northern Colombia.

The Golden-Handed Tamarin is native to the wooded areas along the Amazon River in Brazil, Guyana, French Guiana, Suriname, and Venezuela. They live in groups of 2 to 15 individuals.
