Correlates of genetic monogamy in socially monogamous mammals: insights from Azara’s owl monkeys

Adult Male Replacement in Socially Monogamous Equatorial Saki Monkeys (Pithecia aequatorialis)

Genetic evaluation of the mating system in the blue-and-yellow macaw (Ara ararauna, Aves, Psittacidae) by DNA fingerprinting
(Sociedade Brasileira de Genética, 2011)
More than 90% of birds are socially monogamous, although genetic studies indicate that many are often not sexually monogamous. In the present study, DNA fingerprinting was used to estimate the genetic relationships between ...

The Biology of Paternal Care in Human and Nonhuman Primates
(Annual Reviews, 2009-10)
Among primates, intense paternal care is manifested in only a few distantly related species, including humans. Thus, neither purely phylogenetic nor socioecological hypotheses can explain its presence or the variability ...
SEXUAL DIMORPHISM AND PARENTAL ROLES IN THE THORN-TAILED RAYADITO (FURNARIIDAE)
(2007)
Sexual dimorphism, mating system, and parental care are known for only
a few species of the large passerine family Furnariidae. We conducted a study of sexual
dimorphism in morphology, coloration, and parental roles ...
