Role of the Squirrel Monkey in Parasitic Disease Research [PDF]
Much controversy exists regarding the species of the squirrel monkey. Napier and Napier (Whitney 1995) divide the squirrel monkeys into two species: Saimiri sciureus and Saimiri osterdii; the former is used in biomedical research. Hershkovitz prefers to use two groups of Saimiri based on facial characteristics and other factors, which include "Roman ...

The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside
Abstract While in humans, the flexed position of the fetus and its rotating course down the birth canal are well documented, in other primates the mechanism of labor is unknown. Despite the lack of comparative data, it is commonly assumed that the human obstetric mechanism is unique, and anthropologists have disputed when and why the transition to the ...

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Human digital Meissner's corpuscles are not doubly innervated
Abstract Recent studies have shown that murine and avian Meissner‐like corpuscles are innervated by two distinct mechanoreceptor afferents with different functional properties. In addition, there is evidence that one subpopulation of Meissner corpuscles of monkeys is doubly innervated by mechanoreceptors and nociceptors.
