Among fossil primates, the Eocene adapiforms have been suggested as closest relatives of living anthropoids (monkeys, apes, and humans). Central to this argument is form second pedal digit. Extant strepsirrhines tarsiers possess a grooming claw on digit, while most nail. While controversial, possible presence nail in certain European has considered evidence for anthropoid affinities. Skeletons preserved well enough test idea lacking North American adapiforms. Here, we document quantitatively...
Grooming claws are present on the second pedal digits of strepsirhines and third tarsiers. However, their presence in New World monkeys is often overlooked. As such, absence a grooming claw generally considered an anthropoid synapomorphy. This study utilizes quantitative multivariate analysis to define morphology document its platyrrhine monkeys. Our results show that owl possess similar those strepsirhines, while titi claw-like morphology. Therefore, we conclude anthropoids not clearly...
The field of phenomics is experiencing unprecedented advances thanks to the rapid growth morphological quantification based on three-dimensional (3D) imaging, online data repositories, team-oriented collaborations, and open data-sharing policies. In line with these progressions, we present an extensive primate phenotypic dataset comprising >6,000 3D scans (media) representing skeletal morphologies 386 individual specimens covering all hominoid genera (except humans) other selected primates....
