Editing Geoffroy's tamarin (section)

=== Diet ===
Geoffroy's tamarin has a varied diet that includes fruits, insects, exudates (gums and saps), and green plant parts.<ref name=colombia/> The diet varies seasonally.<ref name=colombia/> A study by [[Paul Garber]] estimated that the diet was made up of 40% insects, 38% fruit, 14% exudates (almost entirely from ''[[Anacardium excelsum]]'' [[cashew]] trees), and 8% other items.<ref name=colombia/><ref name=locomotor/> Another study, on Barro Colorado Island, showed 60% fruit, 30% insects and 10% green plant parts, including large amounts of elephant ear tree (''[[Enterolobium cyclocarpum]]'') sap.<ref name=colombia/> Another study showed a diet about equally split between insects (mostly [[grasshopper]]s) and fruit.<ref name=colombia/> Unlike marmosets, tamarins do not have dentition adapted for gouging trees, so Geoffroy's tamarin eats sap only when it is easily accessible.<ref name="iucn" /><ref name=locomotor/> It generally hunts for insects by making quick movements on thin, flexible supports.<ref name=locomotor/> In contrast, it generally feeds on sap while clinging to large vertical tree trunks.<ref name=locomotor/>

In one study, Geoffroy's tamarin drank water from the [[corolla (flower)|corollas]] of ''[[Ochroma|Ochroma limonesis]]'' flowers.<ref name=colombia/> However, it is believed to also drink from tree holes, similar to other tamarin species.<ref name=colombia/>
