A description of the techniques for the laboratory care and management of a new primate species, the Cebus monkey, for experimental nutrition has been presented. Selected chemical and hematological measurements have been made which define a "normal" with its variations for this species. A purified diet and feeding technique are described which allow maintenance of good health for periods of at least three years.
