What is a marmoset? Depicted is an artist's impression of two marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) showing their small body size (oil on canvas painting by Sir Edwin Landseer, 1803–1873, the Royal Collection, United Kingdom). The lower part of the figure depicts the phylogenetic tree of primates with the evolutionary distance to humans.
