   More than a century of studies in embryology, anatomy, and genetics have resolved the phylogeny of living Primates (Fig. 1 ). Two great clades of living primates exist, the Strepsirrhini (Lemuriformes) and the Haplorhini ( Tarsius and Anthropoidea). Within the Anthropoidea are two clades: Catarrhini (the Old World monkeys, apes, and humans) and ...

   What does Haplorhini mean?

   • As you no doubt recall, Haplorhini means "simple nose." The shared characteristics of tarsiers, New World monkeys, Old World monkeys, and apes include: Figure 2.7.1 2.7. 1: Hamadryas Baboon (Papio hamadryas) at the Leipzig Zoo. The three genera of Tarsiidae;

   What genus is Haplorhini?

   • Isolated occurrences, including the stem genus Teilhardina, are known in Asia. Two genera of Tarsiidae, known in the Middle Eocene of Asia, lead to a possible character-based definition of Haplorhini. The Asiatic Eosimiidae may belong in this group, and Archicebus may possibly lie on its stem.

   Was haplorhinism acquired convergently in tarsiids and anthropoideans?

   • Such a view implies that anatomical haplorhinism was acquired convergently in tarsiids and anthropoideans – an unparsimonious assumption, which would require grounding in a convincing fossil record, or else refutation of the homologies listed above.

   Jan 1, 2021 · Collectively, all modern and extinct great apes, including humans, are currently referred to as hominids. The African contingent of the family Hominidae (comprising Homo, Pan, and Gorilla) is known as the subfamily Homininae. Within the Homininae there are three tribes: Gorillini, Panini, and Hominini.

   adapiforms with Haplorhini (10). However, Darwinius and other adapiforms share derived features with extant strepsirrhines and lack derived features shared by extant tarsiers and anthropoids (6, 11–15). Several hypotheses about tarsier and anthropoid origins have been proposed. Some researchers argue that anthropoids and tarsiers share a ...

   Nov 17, 2020 · Most Strepsirhines are nocturnal and arboreal and have specialized features, such as large eyes with a light reflecting disk, to help with night vision. They were the first suborder of primates to evolve (O'Neil 1998-2012) and are sometimes referred to as the "lower primates." Figure 2.4.3 2.4. 3 - Abbreviated Haplorhini classification.
