Are the patas monkeys in the United States pure Erythrocebus patas? Until recently, I was under the impression that animals from two different species could never produce fertile offspring, but have learned of some exceptions. I figure there is a good chance of that applying to patas monkeys.

I think it's highly unlikely that members of either of the split species were imported to zoos, though it would honestly be a gift if the patas in zoos turned out to be baumstarki. I'm not sure if there's any info. on the origins of the captive populations.

Yeah, it's been my impression that the captive population originated from West Africa. Unfortunately I don't have anything to back that up.
