Genera: 6 genera with 56 species in 3 subfamilies:

Subfamily Callitrichinae Gray 1821

Genus Callimico Miranda-Ribeiro 1912 (1 species)

Genus Callithrix Erxleben 1777 (21 species with 2 subspecies)

Genus Leontopithecus Lesson 1844 (4 species)

Genus Saguinus Hoffmannsegg 1807 (17 species with 21 subspecies)

Genus Cebus Erxleben 1777 (8 species with 19 subspecies)

Subfamily Saimiriinae Miller 1812

Genus Saimiri Voigt 1831 (5 species with 8 subspecies)

Discussion: Groves (1993) divided Platyrrhini into two families, Callitrichidae and Cebidae , the traditional approach (see for example Martin, 1990; see also McKenna and Bell (1997), who used the earlier name Atelidae instead of Cebidae ). But the evidence (reviewed by Groves, 2001 c) is that the family Cebidae , in this traditional sense, is paraphyletic, and Nyctipithecidae, Pitheciidae and Atelidae must be extracted from it, while the marmoset group (here called Callitrichinae ) is closer to the core Cebidae and should be united with them.
