 Gelada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gelada (Theropithecus gelada) is a species of Old World monkey, found only in the highlands of Ethiopia and Eritrea.
Theropithecus gelada is the only living species, but at least two separate lineages are known in the fossil record.
While the Gelada is restricted to Ethiopia and Eritrea today, fossils of the genus are known from South Africa, Malawi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, Algeria, Morocco, Spain, and India.

 Simmons: Graminivorous Adaptations of Theropithecus gelada
Theropithecus gelada of Ethiopia occupy a graminivorous niche; they feed chiefly upon the greenest blades of grasses which they must carefully pluck using their long thumbs (Krentz 1993).
Theropithecus gelada have adapted to a graminivorous niche in several ways, and this specific niche occupation has various effects on the gelada’s behavior.
Studies of fossil Theropithecus oswaldi dentition suggests that the animal was even better-suited to the mastication of tough foods than extant Theropithecus; the third molars of T.

The Gelada used to be grouped with other baboons in the genus Papio, but since 1979 it has become customary to place them in a separate genus, Theropithecus.

Theropithecus brumpti had a dental formula of 2:1:2:3 on both the upper and lower jaws (Fleagle, 1988).
Theropithecus brumpti was found in East Africa during the late Pliocene epoch (Fleagle, 1988).
Based upon the dental morphology, the high shearing crests of the teeth, this was a folivorous species (Fleagle, 1988).

What's interesting is that we know from their fossils here at Olorgesailie and elsewhere in Africa that these extinct species lived in different environments and ate different things from what their living relatives eat.
Theropithecus, for example, was a baboon that had very big molars and strong jaws, and the microscopic scratches on their teeth (based on a study by my good friend Dr. Mark Teaford of Johns Hopkins University) tell us that this baboon at lots of grass.
Modern baboons have smaller molars and jaws, and eat a wide variety of plants and even animals on rare occasions.
