Just by way of a brief partial answer (though there’s more to it than this), there are some monkeys that kill the young of other males but not their own young. To your question of how they know their own young from others, they seem to sense that if they copulated with a given female and she gives birth at an appropriate time after that, that infant is probably his. But females take advantage of this. If a female is already pregnant from a previous male, it’s in her genetic interest to keep the new male in the neighborhood from killing her baby when it’s born. Therefore she will go into a pseudoestrus(false heat), fooling the new male into thinking she’s fertile, and mating with her. Then when she does give birth, even though it’s not his offspring, he knows he copulated with her a while back and he refrains from killing that infant.

So in short answer to your question, a male might recognize his own offspring just because they’re born to a female he knows he copulated with. And, as we see, this leaves him open to deception.
