White-headed Capuchin (Cebus capucinus), Nationa Park Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica

The white-headed capuchin is a medium-sized New World monkey of the family Cebidae, subfamily Cebinae. Native to the forests of Central America and the extreme north-western portion of South America, the white-headed capuchin is important to rainforest ecology for its role in dispersing seeds and pollen.
