Abstract

In this paper we present an overview of the past and current conservation research on southern muriquis, Brachyteles arachnoides, in the state of São Paulo, most particularly in the forests of the Serra de Paranapiacaba, in four connected protected areas, which comprise the so-called Paranapiacaba Ecological Continuum: the state parks of Carlos Botelho, Intervales, and Alto Ribeira and the Xitué Ecological Station. These areas are the major stronghold for this species, and we discuss particularly the history of research on the muriquis of the Carlos Botelho State Park and the importance of statewide surveys and the establishment of further long term research sites to understand better its status and for the elaboration of management plans for its conservation.
