Brown spider monkey (Ateles hybridus) Platyrrhini is a parvorder of primates. Members of this parvorder are called platyrrhines, or New World monkeys, and include marmosets, tamarins, and capuchin, squirrel, night, titi, saki, howler, spider, and woolly monkeys. Platyrrhini is one of three clades that form the suborder Haplorrhini, itself one of two suborders in the order Primates. They are ...

Platyrrhines also differ from Old World monkeys in that they have twelve premolars instead of eight; having a dental formula of 2.1.3.3 2.1.3.3 or 2.1.3.2 2.1.3.2 (consisting of 2 incisors, 1 canine, 3 premolars, and 2 or 3 molars).
Here's another list of monkeys: platyrrhines, or "New World monkeys", #5 in the order Primates and #34 overall for mammals. This took a while; the last couple of lists were 14 and 28 species, but this one is a much larger 160. Turns out South America is filled with a wide variety of little monkeys!
This taxon was traditionally thought to be a primitive lineage, from which all the larger-bodied platyrrhines evolved. [4] However, some works argue that callitrichids are actually a dwarfed lineage. [5] [6] Ancestral stem-callitrichids likely were "normal-sized" ceboids that were dwarfed through evolutionary time.
Ucayalipithecus remains dating from the Early Oligocene of Amazonian Peru are deeply nested within the Parapithecidae, and have dental features markedly different from those of platyrrhines. Qatrania wingi of lower Oligocene Fayum deposits is considered the closest known relative of Ucayalipithecus . [ 2 ]
