The Late Miocene Colobine Monkey Mesopithecus (Primates, Cercopithecidae) of Greece
The genus Mesopithecus a colobine monkey, represents the earliest known cercopithecoid in Eurasia. Mesopithecus is very common in the Late Miocene of Greece and the field work in several fossiliferous sites provided a rich collection from the Turolian ...

Tracing the evolutionary history of the morpho‐anatomy of baculum in primates
Abstract Animal morphology reflects both evolutionary history and present‐day adaptation. Male mammal copulatory structures such as the baculum (penile bone) are ideal for studying these processes because of their complexity and high interspecific variability. In primates, however, research has focused mostly on baculum length.

Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Serum Relationships Within the Family Cercopithecidae [PDF]
ABSTRACT Quantitative tests show that an antiserum for an individual of one species of the Old World monkey family Cercopithecidae may react no more strongly with the blood of another individual of the same species than it does with the blood of monkeys belonging to other species or genera of the same family.

Link prediction in ecological meta‐networks under extreme taxonomic bias
Abstract Ecological networks offer powerful insights into community function but, without first characterizing these networks accurately, our ability to detect and interpret changes under environmental stress is limited. We develop an extension of the Covariate‐Informed Link Prediction (COIL) framework to reduce bias in ecological link prediction when ...
