capuchin monkey

The capuchin monkeys ( or ) are New World monkeys of the subfamily Cebinae. Prior to 2011, the subfamily contained only a single genus, ''Cebus''. However, in 2011, it was proposed that the capuchin monkeys should be split between the gracile capuchins in the genus ''Cebus'' and the robust capuchins in the genus ''Sapajus''. The range of capuchin monkeys includes Central America and South America as far south as northern Argentina.
==Etymology==
The word capuchin derives from a group of friars named the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin, an offshoot from the Franciscans, who wear brown robes with large hoods covering their heads. When explorers reached the Americas in the 15th century they found small monkeys who resembled these friars and named them capuchins. When the scientists described a specimen (thought to be a Golden-bellied capuchin) they noted that: "''his muzzle of a tanned color,... with the lighter color around his eyes that melts into the white at the front, his cheeks..., give him the looks that involuntarily reminds us of the appearance that historically in our country represents ignorance, laziness, and sensuality.''" The scientific name of the genus, ''Cebus'' comes from the Greek word kêbos, meaning a long-tailed monkey.
