The distribution of short wavelength-sensitive (SWS or ''blue'') cone photoreceptors was compared in primates with dichromatic (''red-green colour blind'') and trichromatic colour vision. We compared a New World species, the marmoset (Callithrix jacchus), with an Old World species, the macaque monke
