		Old World monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) are the most successful and diverse group of living nonhuman primates in terms of the number of species, behavioral repertoires and ecology.
		The phylogeny of the Cercopithecoidea Colin P. Groves; 5.

		The lower molars are distinguished by an enlarged talonid section and by 5 main cusps.
		The anterior lower premolar varies in its form from a long shearing blade in gibbons (sectorial front dentition) to a two-cusped "molarised" tooth in humans.
		The canines are more variable than those of the Cercopithecoidea, both in their shape and in the extent of their sexual dimorphism.

		Usually only one infant is born at a time; it is cared for by the mother for a long period.
		The Old World monkeys are found in S Asia, with a few species as far N as Japan and N China, and in all of Africa except the deserts.
		Monkeys are classified in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, class Mammalia, order Primates, superfamilies Cercopithecoidea and Ceboidea.

		The proposal was based on the experimental observation that the molecular distances among the three genera were about 1/6 of the distance between the Cercopithecoidea (ex.
		Thus the time of the divergence between Cercopithecoidea and Hominoidea 30 MYBP was the all important factor for the proposal of a divergence between Pan and Homo 5 MYBP.
		The palaeontological support for a divergence between Cercopithecoidea and Hominoidea 30 MYBP is inconclusive, however, and does not seem to stand up to scrutiny.

		Dental microwear analysis has proved to be a good indicator of diet and dietary related behaviour in modern humans, fossil hominids and primates.
		These particles may scratch the enamel surface of teeth during mastication producing a microwear pattern that may be indicative of food choice and food preferences within primate species.
		In this study we present a dental microwear analysis of extant Cercopithecoidea primates, based on the analysis of more than 200 dental casts obtained from the osteological collection of the National Museum of Kenya (NMK).

	Book Review
		M. Rose presents a beautiful exposition of the forelimb functional anatomy that makes it clear how unusual the modern species of Hominoidea are.
		Pliopithecus, Dendropithecus, Simiolus) are closer to platyrrhines, Aegyptopithecus and Cercopithecoidea than to Proconsul and other later hominoids.
		C. Ward presents a more formal cladistic analysis of the hindlimb and finds somewhat similar results although her analysis does not include Cercopithecoidea and Ceboidea.

	Taste responses of chorda tympani proper nerve in the white-handed gibbon (Hylobates lar) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		This subfamily diverged from the common stem leading to the great apes and humans after the Old World monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) had diverged.
		Thus the gibbons are interpreted as being the most ancient surviving branch within the Hominoidea.
		Man, chimpanzee and all Cercopithecoidea (monkey) tested so far have an ability to taste the sweet compounds: acesulfame-K, aspartame, D-tryptophane, sucrose, xylitol, monellin and thaumatin.

	Untitled
		Most species live in Africa or Southern Asia; there are two living catarrhine subgroups.
		Cercopithecoidea (Old World monkeys) include some primarily terrestrial forms such as baboons as well as many arboreal species, which typically are specialists for leaping among branches with their long hindlimbs.
		The tail is retained in arboreal groups for balance and steering while airborne, but is lost in some terrestrial species.

		Catarrhini males gain color vision but lose the pheromone pathway.
		Catarrhini (infraorder)(Old World Primates) splits into 2 superfamilies, Old world monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) and Hominoids.
		The Old world monkey does not have a prehensile tail (e.g.

	Week Four
		They share their habitats with prosimians and apes, so there're a lot of niches lying around which aren't filled by the old world monkeys since some other primate filled it first.
		Today we will cover the old world monkeys, and next time we'll do the apes.
		In Cercopithecoidea superfamily we have only 1 family, Cercopithecidae.

		Catarrhines, the extant Old World anthropoids, are traditionally divided by scientists into two superfamilies, the Old World Monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) and the hominoids (Hominoidea).
		The auditory ring is elongated into an ossified tube that ends in tubular external auditory meatus
		The Old Work monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) are recognizable by their bilophodont molar teeth, a dental adaptation that permits effective slicing of leaves or grass stems even under conditions of extreme tooth wear.
