Abstract: | The scent marks of saddle back tamarins remained attractive to conspecifics for 1–3 days depending on the conditions under which they were tested. The monkeys discriminated between gender on the basis of fresh, one-, and two-day-old marks but not on the basis of three- and four-day-old marks.NIH Research Career Development Award, 1973–1978.Camille and Henry Dreyfus Teacher Scholar, 1978–1983.
