Martin's tamarin is a monkey in the genus Saguinus. It has two subspecies: S. m. martinsi and S. m. ochraceus.[4] Both subspecies were formerly considered to be subspecies of the pied tamarin: Saguinus bicolor martinsi and S. b. ochraceus.[5] Subspecies martinsi is commonly known as Martin's bare-face tamarin; subspecies ochraceus is commonly known as the ochraceous bare-faced tamarin.
