The Southern Bahian Masked Titi is a frugivorous species, thus primarily feeding on fruit. They have also been reported to feed on insects and leaves. They are arboreal meaning they rarely travel to the forest floor.

They have a monogamous mating system, and will live throughout their life with the partner and any offspring. They give birth from August through October.
