Functional morphology of trabecular bone in the calcaneus of African apes
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 883-898, October 2026.Pan exhibits significantly higher calcaneal tuberosity trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) than Gorilla, potentially reflecting higher triceps surae forces for vertical climbing. Both taxa have significantly higher Tb.Th and BV/TV in the anterior calcaneus; the difference is exaggerated in Gorilla, potentially reflecting ...

Tolerance Allows Bonobos to Outperform Chimpanzees on a Cooperative Task [PDF]
, 2007 SummaryTo understand constraints on the evolution of cooperation, we compared the ability of bonobos and chimpanzees to cooperatively solve a food-retrieval problem. We addressed two hypotheses. The “emotional-reactivity hypothesis” predicts that bonobos

Clades, Grades, and the Genus Problem: A Case for Revising Hominin Taxonomy
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Taxonomic practice in evolutionary biology increasingly prioritizes the recognition of monophyletic groups (clades), yet paleoanthropology still applies this principle inconsistently. Here, I outline these inconsistencies and broader challenges in hominin taxonomy and propose a potential solution.
