- Although he has a long tail, he never uses it to cling, but rather to balance.
- Squirrel monkeys communicate with each other using vocal signals. They use a different sound when danger approaches from the ground, and a different sound when a predator is lurking in the air.
- He wears a white mask on his face. Formerly known in Hungarian as the death-headed monkey, which is a translation of the German name for the species
