Home-range, movement and activity patterns and diet of a group of 16 white-faced monkeys (Cebus capucinus) were studied in a Costa Rican tropical dry forest at the end of the dry season (March and April) of 1982. The troop used an area of .67 km2 and moved an average of 4.5 km +/- 0.6 daily. Three basic daily activities were identified: resting, moving and feeding. Resting was greatest between 1000-1500 hours. Movement, which was strongly correlated with feeding, occurred most between 0500-0900 hrs and 1300-1800 hrs. The primates were omnivores, feeding on parts of 27 species of plants, four species of insects and an Anolis lizard.
1982年旱季末期(3月和4月),在哥斯达黎加的一片热带干燥森林中,对一群16只白面卷尾猴(Cebus capucinus)的活动范围、移动和活动模式以及饮食进行了研究。这群猴子使用了0.67平方公里的区域,平均每天移动4.5公里±0.6公里。确定了三种基本的日常活动:休息、移动和进食。休息时间在10:00至15:00之间最长。与进食密切相关的移动,大多发生在05:00至09:00以及13:00至18:00之间。这些灵长类动物是杂食性动物,以27种植物的部分、四种昆虫和一只安乐蜥为食。
