White-faced saki (Pithecia pithecia)

This is a highly omnivorous saki found in several countries in the north of South America. They are very active and a group of sakis will sometimes mob predators to scare them away. They are highly sexually dimorphic, females being smaller and grey, while males are large and sport the species’ characteristic white face.

Saki

Genus: Pithecia

The whole Saki species of monkeys are somewhat odd looking, but it is those featured in the above photographs, the White Faced Saki, that are considered to be one of the most unusual looking.

Primarily eating fruit and small insects, the White Faced Saki monkey is part of the New World  group of Monkeys and fortunately is classed as being of the Least Concern in terms of their Conservation status.

WHITE FACED SAKI Pithecia pithecia ©Laura Quick The white-faced saki, called the Guianan saki and the golden-faced saki, is a species of the New World monkey. They can be found in Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname and Venezuela. They eat a mixed diet of seeds, fruits, leaves, honey, flowers, insects, and small mammals and birds and typically ingest seeds and plants that are high in lipid composition. Although they are arboreal creatures and are specialists of swinging from tree to tree (brachiation), they are also terrestrial when foraging. White-faced sakis typically live around 14 years in their natural habitat and have been recorded to live up to 36 years in captivity. Other New World Monkeys:

Round 1, part 1, match 14: saki monkeys

Black bearded saki (Chiropotes satanas)

These fabulous-looking sakis are specialised seed-eaters living in the north of Brazil. Their strange teeth allow them to efficiently crack open seeds, and they will also eat fruits and insects. Their genus name (Chiropotes) references their habit of drinking water with their hands, which prevents them from having to get their beards wet.
