CHAPTER 6
An Overview of the Primates
Primates
• To identify crucial features of the evolution of human
species, we start by comparing ourselves to our 230
non-human relatives
• Living primates are not “better” than their evolutionary
predecessors or other living species.
• Each possesses unique qualities that make it better
suited to a particular habitat and lifestyle.
Physical Characteristics of Primates
• Specialized limbs and locomotion
• Lack of dietary specialization, reflected in dentition
• Visual acuity and reduced sense of smell
• Neocortex expansion and greater dependence on
learning
Social Characteristics
• Longer period of gestation and dependency of
offspring
• Dependence on flexible, learned behavior
• Social groups and permanent association of adult
males
• Diurnal activities
Geographical Distribution and Habitats
Primate Habitats
• Most live in tropical or semitropical areas of the new and
old worlds.
• Most are arboreal, living in forest or woodland habitats.
• No nonhuman primate is adapted to a fully terrestrial
environment; all spend some time in the trees.
Primate Diet and Teeth
• Omnivorous
• Incisors for biting and cutting; premolars and molars for
chewing
and grinding
• Dental formula
• New World Monkeys have two incisors, one canine, three
premolars, and
three molars on each side in both upper and lower jaws: 2.1.3.3.
(34 total)
• Old World anthropoids have 2.1.2.3 (32 total)
Primate Limbs
• A tendency towards erect posture.
• Hands and feet possess grasping ability.
• Features of the hands and feet:
• 5 digits on hand and feet
• Opposable thumb
• Partially opposable great toe
• Tactile pads enriched with sensory nerve fibers at the
ends of digits
Limbs and Evolution
• Many monkeys are able to grasp objects with
an opposable thumb, while others have very
reduced thumbs.
Limbs and Evolution
• Humans are capable of a
“precision grip.”
• Chimpanzees, with their
reduced thumbs, are
also capable of a
precision grip, but they
frequently use a modified
form.
Locomotion
• Quadrupedal, walk on all fours
• Vertical clinging and leaping
• Brachiation
• Knuckle walking
Anatomy, Limb Proportions and Locomotor Patterns
Quadrupedal
• Almost all primates are
at some times
quadrupedal, they walk
on all four legs.
• Apes use specialized
form, knuckle walking,
due to arm length
Quadrupedal
Knuckle walking: Weight
is on back of fingers not
palms due to arm length
Anatomy, Limb Proportions and Locomotor Patterns
Vertical clinging and leaping.
• Hangs on trees or
branches vertically
and uses strong hind
legs to leap forward
or backward.
• Notice long hind
legs capable of
powerful leaping and
shorter front limbs.
• Characteristic of
lemurs, and tarsiers
Vertical clinging and leaping
Anatomy, Limb Proportions and Locomotor Patterns
Brachiating
• Locomotion by
suspending body from
one arm and swinging
forward and switching to
the other arm (think
monkey bars)
• Semibrachiators also leap and
often use prehensile tail
• All apes are capable of, and
occasionally braciate
• Notice arms longer than
legs, long curved fingers
and shortened thumb,
lower back is short and
stabilized
• Characteristic of gibbons
and siamangs
Brachiating
Primate Senses
• Increased reliance on sight in comparison to other
mammals
• Primates have a decreased reliance on the sense of
smell.
Vision
• Stereoscopic Vision
• Visual images are superimposed on one another providing
depth
perception (three dimensions).
• Stereoscopic vision is partly a function of structures in the
brain, visual
input is shared with both hemispheres of the brain.
• Binocular Vision
• Vision characterized by overlapping visual fields provided for
by forward-
facing eyes.
• Binocular vision is essential to depth perception
• Color
• Color vision is a characteristic of diurnal primates.
• Nocturnal primates lack color vision.
Binocular Vision in Primates
Comparison of Primate Skulls
• The skull of a male
baboon compared with
that of a red wolf.
• Note the forward-facing
eyes above the snout in
the baboon, and the
lateral position of the eyes
of the wolf.
• The baboon’s large
muzzle doesn’t reflect a
heavy reliance on smell.
Comparison of Primate Skulls
• The skull of a gibbon (left)
compared with that of a
red wolf (right).
• The absolute size of the
braincase in the gibbon is
slightly larger than that of
the wolf, even though the
wolf is six times the size of
the gibbon.
Primate Classification

application of previously acquired knowledge or through
insight.
• The other great apes have also shown the ability to problem
solve
Endangered Primates
• Over half of all living primates are endangered, many face
immediate extinction.
• Three reasons:
• Habitat destruction
• Hunting for food
• Live capture for export or local trade
Hunting of Primates
• In West Africa the most serious problem is hunting to feed
the growing human population.
• Estimated that thousands of primates, are killed and sold
for meat every year.
• Primates are also killed for commercial products.

  • 3. CHAPTER 6 An Overview of the Primates Primates • To identify crucial features of the evolution of human species, we start by comparing ourselves to our 230 non-human relatives • Living primates are not “better” than their evolutionary predecessors or other living species. • Each possesses unique qualities that make it better
  • 4. suited to a particular habitat and lifestyle. Physical Characteristics of Primates • Specialized limbs and locomotion • Lack of dietary specialization, reflected in dentition • Visual acuity and reduced sense of smell • Neocortex expansion and greater dependence on learning Social Characteristics • Longer period of gestation and dependency of offspring • Dependence on flexible, learned behavior • Social groups and permanent association of adult males • Diurnal activities Geographical Distribution and Habitats
  • 5. Primate Habitats • Most live in tropical or semitropical areas of the new and old worlds. • Most are arboreal, living in forest or woodland habitats. • No nonhuman primate is adapted to a fully terrestrial environment; all spend some time in the trees. Primate Diet and Teeth • Omnivorous • Incisors for biting and cutting; premolars and molars for chewing and grinding • Dental formula • New World Monkeys have two incisors, one canine, three premolars, and three molars on each side in both upper and lower jaws: 2.1.3.3. (34 total) • Old World anthropoids have 2.1.2.3 (32 total) Primate Limbs
  • 6. • A tendency towards erect posture. • Hands and feet possess grasping ability. • Features of the hands and feet: • 5 digits on hand and feet • Opposable thumb • Partially opposable great toe • Tactile pads enriched with sensory nerve fibers at the ends of digits Limbs and Evolution • Many monkeys are able to grasp objects with an opposable thumb, while others have very reduced thumbs. Limbs and Evolution • Humans are capable of a “precision grip.” • Chimpanzees, with their reduced thumbs, are
  • 7. also capable of a precision grip, but they frequently use a modified form. Locomotion • Quadrupedal, walk on all fours • Vertical clinging and leaping • Brachiation • Knuckle walking Anatomy, Limb Proportions and Locomotor Patterns Quadrupedal • Almost all primates are at some times quadrupedal, they walk on all four legs. • Apes use specialized
  • 8. form, knuckle walking, due to arm length Quadrupedal Knuckle walking: Weight is on back of fingers not palms due to arm length Anatomy, Limb Proportions and Locomotor Patterns Vertical clinging and leaping. • Hangs on trees or branches vertically and uses strong hind legs to leap forward or backward. • Notice long hind legs capable of powerful leaping and shorter front limbs. • Characteristic of lemurs, and tarsiers Vertical clinging and leaping
  • 9. Anatomy, Limb Proportions and Locomotor Patterns Brachiating • Locomotion by suspending body from one arm and swinging forward and switching to the other arm (think monkey bars) • Semibrachiators also leap and often use prehensile tail • All apes are capable of, and occasionally braciate • Notice arms longer than legs, long curved fingers and shortened thumb, lower back is short and stabilized • Characteristic of gibbons and siamangs Brachiating Primate Senses
  • 10. • Increased reliance on sight in comparison to other mammals • Primates have a decreased reliance on the sense of smell. Vision • Stereoscopic Vision • Visual images are superimposed on one another providing depth perception (three dimensions). • Stereoscopic vision is partly a function of structures in the brain, visual input is shared with both hemispheres of the brain. • Binocular Vision • Vision characterized by overlapping visual fields provided for by forward- facing eyes. • Binocular vision is essential to depth perception • Color • Color vision is a characteristic of diurnal primates. • Nocturnal primates lack color vision.
  • 11. Binocular Vision in Primates Comparison of Primate Skulls • The skull of a male baboon compared with that of a red wolf. • Note the forward-facing eyes above the snout in the baboon, and the lateral position of the eyes of the wolf. • The baboon’s large muzzle doesn’t reflect a heavy reliance on smell. Comparison of Primate Skulls • The skull of a gibbon (left) compared with that of a red wolf (right). • The absolute size of the braincase in the gibbon is
  • 12. slightly larger than that of the wolf, even though the wolf is six times the size of the gibbon. Primate Classification Survey of Living Primates • Prosimians • Lemurs and Lorises • Tarsiers • Anthropoids: Monkeys, Apes, and Humans • New World Monkeys (Platyrrihini) • Old World Monkeys (Catarrhini) • Hominoids: Apes and Humans Lemurs and Lorises • The most primitive of the primates.
  • 13. • Characteristics: • Reliance on olfaction, presence of rhinarium • Laterally placed eyes • Shorter gestation and maturation • Dental specialization called the "dental comb” Lemur Dental Comb • Formed by forward- projecting incisors and canines. • This is a derived characteristic Rhinarium • The moist, fleshy pad at the end of the nose seen in most mammals. • The rhinarium enhances an animal’s ability to smell. • This is a primitive (ancestral) characteristic
  • 14. Lemurs • Found on the island of Madagascar and other islands off the coast of Africa. • Extinct elsewhere in the world. • Characteristics: • Vertical clingers and leapers with quadrepedialism • Larger lemurs are diurnal and eat vegetable foods: fruit, leaves, buds, and bark. • Smaller lemurs are nocturnal and insectivorous (insect -feeding). Geographical Distribution of Living Lemurs Lemurs Ring-tailed Lemur Sifakas Aye Aye Lorises
  • 15. • Found in tropical forests and woodlands of India, Sri Lanka, southeast Asia, and Africa. • Characteristics: • Nocturnal • Lorises use a climbing quadrupedalism. • Galagos use clinging and leaping • Some are insectivorous; others supplement their diet with fruit, leaves, gums, and slugs. • Females frequently form associations for foraging or in sharing the same sleeping nest. Slow Loris Slender Loris Galago or “Bush Baby” Lorises Tarsiers • Small nocturnal primates found on the islands of southeast Asia. • Characteristics
  • 16. • Eat insects and small vertebrates which they catch by leaping from branches (only extant carnivore among the primates). • Large immobile eyes, 180 degree head rotation • Basic social pattern appears to be a family unit consisting of a mated pair and their offspring. Geographical Distribution of Tarsiers Philippine Tarsier Dian’s Tarsier Tarsiers Anthropoids (Monkeys, Apes and Humans) • Common traits: • Larger brain and body size • Reduced reliance on the sense of smell • Greater degree of color vision • Bony plate at the back of the eye socket • Longer gestation and maturation periods
  • 17. • Fused mandible Monkeys • Represent about 85% of all primate species. • Divided into two groups separated by geography and several million years of evolutionary history: • New World monkeys • Old World monkeys New World Monkeys • 70 species almost exclusively arboreal. • Found in southern Mexico and Central and South America. • Two • Characteristics: • Huge variation from tiny marmosets to large howler monkeys • Almost all are exclusively arboreal
  • 18. • All but one are diurnal Geographical Distribution of Living New World Monkeys Marmosets and tamarins • Eat fruit, leaf buds, insects, and tree sap • Marmosets and tamarins are unique in that: • they have claws instead of nails • bear twins • live in mated pairs • males extensively care for their offspring Golden Lion Tamarin Pygmy Marmoset Cebid Monkeys • Howlers, muiquis, spider monkeys have prehensile tail
  • 19. used for locomotion and food gathering • Live in social groups of both sexes and of all ages Old World Monkeys • Habitats range from tropical forests to semiarid desert to snow-covered areas in Japan and china. • Characteristics: • Most quadrupedal and arboreal • All belong to the Cercopithecidae family. • Divided into subfamilies, the cercopithecines and the colobines. Geographical Distribution of Living Old World Monkeys Sexual Dimorphism
  • 20. • Differences in physical characteristics between males and females of the same species. • Many old world monkeys and apes display pronounced sexual dimorphism, this is linked to reproduction strategies • This will be discussed next week Orangutan Gelada Baboon Lowland Gorilla Cercopithecines • The subfamily of Old World monkeys that includes baboons, macaques, and guenons. • Omnivorous: eat fruit, plant matter, insects, small animals and eggs • Baboons and guenons are found in Africa • Macaques are found in southern Asia and India • Both baboons and macaques live in large social groups of adults and offspring Hamadryas Baboon Schmidt’s Guenon
  • 21. Japanese Macaque Colobines • The subfamily of Old World monkeys that includes the African colobus monkeys and Asian langurs. • Primarily leaf eaters • Live in small groups with one or two adult males Red Colobus Black and White Colobus Francois' langur Hominoids (Apes and Humans) • Characteristics distinguishing hominoids from monkeys: • Larger body size • Absence of a tail • Shortened trunk • More complex behavior • More complex brain
  • 22. • Increased period of infant development Geographical Distribution of Living Asian Apes Gibbons and Siamangs • Found in the tropical areas of southeast Asia. • Characteristics: • Adaptations for brachiation may be related to feeding while hanging from branches. • Diet is largely fruit with leaves, flowers, and insects. • Basic social unit is a monogamous pair and their offspring with males helping to care for offspring • Males and females delineate their territories with whoops and “songs”. White-handed gibbon • Note the long curved fingers, long arms, and heavily muscled shoulders. Siamang • Whooping to mark territory
  • 23. Orangutans (Pogo pygmaeus) • Found in heavily forested areas of Borneo and Sumatra. • Characteristics: • Almost completely arboreal. • Quadrepedal both on the ground and in the trees • Pronounced sexual dimorphism. • males = 200 lbs, females = 100 lbs • Solitary social lives, except mothers with offspring • Principally frugivorous (fruit-eating). Orangutans Female Infant Male Geographical Distribution of Living African Apes
