Cotton-top tamarin because they look like small, black and white people. Second favorite are black howler monkeys.

It is the owl monkey.
It is fairly similar in appearance,white-black and white facial markings,gray to brown colored back,large eyes the largest of any south American primate {for night vision} and non-prehensile tail.
Difference is mainly in the undercoat and neck color.
They are normally 11-16 inches long in body,with males slightly longer and weigh around 2 pounds.
Red-necked owl monkeys are a bit heavier than gray.
Found in Brazil,Southern central America and Argentina.
Found in Forest habitats.
Fruit accounts for most of their diet,but they will also eat leaves,flowers,sap,and animal prey.

Squirrel monkeys. They are sooooo tiny, and interesting to watch. I saw them at the zoo a few times...either the Portland zoo or the Woodland Park in Seattle.
