Abstract
Sequences of eruption of teeth and union of epiphyses are given for local populations of 3 species of monkeys from South America. These sequences are highly scalable for each species and are very similar among the different species. Tentative chronological ages of epiphyseal union can be assigned to younger individuals in 2 species by utilizing chronological ages of dental eruption published by other investigators. The sequences of epiphyseal union in these New World monkeys are very similar to published sequences in Old World monkeys. No specimen in the present series was completely mature skeletally.
