RESUMO:

This study addresses the parasitic ecology of Ateles marginatus, an endemic and endangered species in the Amazon, highlighting the relevance of the topic both for primate conservation and for understanding the interactions between health, environment, and population dynamics. The main objective was to evaluate the seasonal influence on the occurrence of intestinal parasites, complemented by specific analyses in each chapter. The first chapter sought to characterize the diversity and prevalence of intestinal parasites in the species, revealing low parasitic richness restricted to two species, which suggests the influence of environmental and transmission factors. The second chapter compared coproparasitological techniques used to identify parasites, demonstrating that both were similarly effective, although with differences in diagnostic sensitivity. The third chapter evaluated the influence of seasonality on parasitic occurrence, identifying significant variations between dry and wet periods, with greater infection intensity associated with climatic and ecological conditions. To achieve these results, fecal samples were collected in two distinct areas and analyzed using laboratory methods for parasitological diagnosis. It was concluded that the low diversity found may be related both to the ecological characteristics of the species and to the environment studied, reinforcing the importance of seasonality and environmental conditions in transmission dynamics. Thus, the study contributes to the knowledge of parasitic ecology in neotropical primates and provides relevant insights for conservation strategies for Ateles marginatus and its habitat in the Amazon,
