Abstract

Brazil harbors the greatest diversity of primates, and among them, the genus Callithrix is notable for its adaptation to urban environments. Despite being endemic to southern Bahia and northeastern Minas Gerais, the Wied's marmoset (Callithrix kuhlii) remains understudied, highlighting the need for baseline health data. This study aimed to characterize the hematological and biochemical profiles of C. kuhlii in urban and peri-urban areas within its distribution range. A total of 106 wild marmosets were captured, and blood samples were collected from the femoral plexus of the individuals. Hematological parameters showed no significant differences between sexes. However, sex-based variations were observed in serum biochemistry, with males showing higher triglycerides and urea levels, possibly influenced by dietary factors and testosterone. This pioneering study establishes essential baseline data on the hematology and biochemistry parameters of C. kuhlii in the wild, supporting future research on its ecology and conservation within the Atlantic Forest.

巴西巴伊亚州南部城市和城市周边地区 Callithrix kuhlii（COIMBRA-FILHO，1985 年）的血液学和生物化学特征

巴西是灵长类动物多样性最丰富的国家，其中栗鼠属因其对城市环境的适应性而闻名。尽管维德狨（Callithrix kuhlii）是巴伊亚州南部和米纳斯吉拉斯州东北部的特有动物，但对它的研究仍然不足，这凸显了对基线健康数据的需求。本研究旨在分析 C. kuhlii 分布范围内城市和城市周边地区的血液学和生化特征。研究人员共捕获了106只野生狨猴，并从个体的股神经丛采集了血液样本。血液学参数显示，雌雄狨猴之间没有明显差异。不过，在血清生化指标方面观察到了性别差异，雄性的甘油三酯和尿素水平较高，这可能是受饮食因素和睾酮的影响。这项开创性的研究为野生 C. kuhlii 的血液学和生物化学参数建立了重要的基准数据，为今后大西洋森林中 C. kuhlii 的生态学和保护研究提供了支持。
