ResumoThe anatomy of Cebus paella is the missing gap between prosimians and monkeys from the new world. Comparisons between Cebus and human beings are reported, among other comparative considerations in relation to chimpanzees, baboons, cats and dogs. The Brazilian Institute for Environment and Recyclable Natural Resources (Ibama – Instituto Brasileiro de Meio Ambiente) from Sete Lagoas, state of Minas Gerais (Brazil), donated eight different species of Cebus paella and they were sacrificed according to the recommendations of the Brazilian Society of Animal Experimentation (Cobea – Colégio Brasileiro de Experimentação Animal). There was equivalence in the distribution and innervation of the arm nerves of Cebus and human beings, although there was divergence in the trajectory of median and ulnar nerves, which presented higher similarity with cats and dogs. Anatomical structures not present in human beings, as the epicondilar foramen and the dorsal-olecraneal muscle, differ in the trajectory and distribution of some nerves
