Cebidae: capuchin monkeys, howlers, woolly monkeys, squirrel monkeys, night monkeys, titis, uakaris, - English
URL: http://www.primates.com/primate/cebidae.html

The family Cebidae contains 11 genera 58 species (following most recent authors, we exclude the marmosets and tamarins and place them in their own family, the Callitrichidae). Cebids are a strictly American group, currently found from southern Mexico south to northern Argentina. They have been in South America since at least the early Oligocene, when they probably arrived via overwater rafting from Africa.

Rainforest mammals are a rich and varied collection of animals, from bats to tapirs, from elephants to sloths. Many species are threatened in their natural environments by the destruction of the rainforests. This chapter describes a cross section of both Old World and New World rainforest mammals, concentrating on the best known and the most interesting species. Some groups of mammals are well represented in the rainforests, while others like the horse family, dogs and rabbits have only a few if any rainforest cousins. This site is suitable for both children and adults. Produced by REMedia Inc.

They're only found in South America. Fossils go all the way south but species living currently only go a little out of the tropics. They maybe arrived 30 million years ago over the sea somehow- but it was not by a land bridge.
