White-faced Saki
Pithecia pithecia
Adult white-faced sakis inhabit mature rainforest in the Guianas, Venezuela, and northern Brazil, moving through the middle and upper canopy. They feed mainly on fruit and seeds, using strong jaws and canines to break into tough seed coats. They are agile leapers with long, bushy tails for balance, and adult males are especially striking with a dark body and pale face.
