RESUMO:

Brazil has the largest number of non-human primate species on the planet. Currently 139 species and subspecies are described. Distributed from the Amazon region to Rio Grande do Sul. However, when confronted with the total number of these species with the number of primates classified into some threat category, almost a third of these mammals found in the country run the risk of disappearing. Coimbra Filho’s titi monkey (Callicebus coimbrai) was described by Kobayashi and Langguth in 1999 and is in the endangered category on the IUCN and Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation lists.Some groups of titis can be found in the metropolitan region of Salvador, Bahia, within the limits of the Joanes-Ipitanga Environmental Protection Area, between the municipalities of Simões Filho and Candeias. The urbanization pressures exerted on these fragments and the increasing loss of forest cover are contributing significantly to the disappearance of primate populations in this region.The aim of this study was to know aspects of the location, ecology and behavior of C. coimbrai around the Represa Joanes 2, in order to disseminate the results to collaborate with conservation measures of this species. Data were collected through field expeditions at random intervals, from 2013 to 2018, for a total of forty-two days of sampling effort, using the playback technique to attract the groups of titis. From the collection of feces and sound recording produced by the vocalization of the guigós it was possible to describe some parameters of these samples.The fact that the group of titis, accompanied for almost six years in one of the fragments, remained inhabiting this fragment, even with the small size of the living area and the threats of hunting, demonstrates the persistence of the species to anthropogenic impacts.
