Book
The Primate Fossil Record
TL;DR: This book discusses the earliest fossil primates and the evolution of prosimians, the origin and diversification of anthropoid primates, and the hominoid radiation in Asia.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new extinct primate among the Pleistocene megafauna of Bahia, Brazil.
TL;DR: A nearly complete skeleton of a robust-bodied New World monkey that resembles living spider monkeys was recovered from undisturbed Pleistocene deposits in the Brazilian state of Bahia, indicating that New World monkeys nearly twice the size of those living today were part of the mammalian biomass of southern Amazonia in the late Pleistsocene.
Journal ArticleDOI
A complete skeleton of the giant South American primate Protopithecus
TL;DR: This skeleton confirms that adaptive diversity in neotropical primates was greater in the recent past, and that current interpretations of how their distinctive adaptations evolved should be revised.
Journal ArticleDOI
