The Santa Marta white-fronted capuchin[1] (Cebus malitiosus) is a species of gracile capuchin monkey native to Colombia.
- It was previously considered a subspecies of Cebus albifrons or a synonym of the Columbian white-faced capuchin (Cebus capucinus). Still, Mittermeier and Rylands upgraded it to species status in 2013, following earlier work by Hershkovitz, Rylands, Cooper, and Hernandez-Camacho.
- The Santa Marta white-fronted capuchin is characterized by a rather dark brown coloring with yellowish shoulders over most of the body.
- A pale area on the dorsal area is less extensive, and upper parts and limbs are paler than in Hypoleucus.
- Cap Prout’s is brown, mid back is cinnamon brown, and forearm and foreleg are indistinguishable from the back and sides of the body.
- Abdominal and chest hair is tan to reddish, cinnamon, and silver.
