Marca's marmoset (Mico marcai) is a species of marmoset that is endemic to the Amazon, in the Aripuanã-Manicoré interfluvium in Brazil.^[4] It is virtually unknown; in 2008 the IUCN noted that it had never been seen in the wild,^[3] though it has been observed since then.^{[5] [6]} Probably, Mico manicorensis will be considered a synonymous of M. marcai.^[4]
