The First Capitular Joint in Primates: Cebidae, Cercopithecidae and Homo

open access: bronzeOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 1992
As for the first capitular joint, Ohman (1986) claimed that a univertebral type is unique to modern and fossil hominids among primates. Stern and Jungers (1990) compiled the data in a wider range of primate and demonstrated as follows. The univertebral type, rather than being unique to hominids, is common among siamang, occurs in an occasional gibbon ...
