Cebids are a strictly American group, currently found from southern Mexico south to northern Argentina. They have been in South America since at least the early Oligocene, when they probably arrived via overwater rafting from Africa. Externally, cebids are characterized by long limbs , digits with curved nails (not claws)

146. Okapi Wildlife Reserve UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Okapi Wildlife Reserve occupies about one fifth of the Ituri Forest in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Zaire River basin, of which the reserve and forest are a part, is one of the largest drainage systems in Africa and has yielded a large number of major evolutionary discoveries. The wildlife reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild. http://www.unesco.org/whc/sites/718.htm

The Zaire river basin, of which the reserve and forest are a part, is one of the largest drainage systems in Africa. The reserve contains threatened species of primates and birds and about 5,000 of the estimated 30,000 okapi surviving in the wild. It also has some dramatic scenery, including waterfalls on the Ituri and Epulu rivers. The reserve is inhabited by traditional nomadic pygmy Mbuti and Efe hunters. Threats to the Site: The Committee inscribed the Okapi Wildlife Reserve on the List of World Heritage in Danger , one year after giving it World Heritage status, due to reports that the armed conflict, which spread to the eastern parts of the country in early 1997, had led to the looting of facilities and the killing of elephants in this site. Most of the staff have fled the Reserve. There have also been reports of gold mining. In the latter part of 1998 however, as a result of renewed fighting in the area, equipment donated by international conservation NGOs has been looted and the staff who were in the process of reviving conservation activities had to be evacuated.

There's some good stuff going on, especially in Brazil and Madagascar Russ Mittermeier They say the number of threatened species has risen sharply in the last three years. Primates living in two south-east Asian countries are said to be especially endangered. But several species are judged a little safer than they used to be. The report is entitled Primates In Peril: The World's Top 25 Most Endangered Primates. It is published by Conservation International (CI) and the primate specialist group of IUCN, the World Conservation Union. Vietnamese crisis The authors say the numbers of primate species and sub-species classified as either endangered or critically endangered have risen nearly 63%, from 120 to 1995, since the publication of an earlier report at the beginning of 2000.

Watch Earth Matters on CNN and CNN International. Primates in peril, except for one species August 28, 1997 Web posted at: 7:21 p.m. EDT (2321 GMT) WASHINGTON (AP) Hunting and the steady loss of forests have made primates the most imperiled group of mammals on the planet. Only one species of primates is increasing in numbers: humans. Nearly half of the 235 primates, including chimpanzees the human's closest evolutionary relative are threatened with extinction. Another 20 percent are approaching that status, said a report published Thursday by Worldwatch Institute. "In general, the reasons for the declines are no mystery: they all relate, directly or indirectly, to human actions," said the report entitled "Death in the Family Tree." It spotlighted a number of "hotspots" around the world where forest loss has resulted in high concentrations of endangered primates. These include southeast Asia, equatorial Africa, Madagascar, and southeastern Brazil. "The fate of these forests will largely determine the fate of most primates, and more and more of these forests are losing their ecological integrity as they are logged, colonized and cleared for agriculture," the article said. In south and east Asia, nine-tenths of all primates are facing extinction. In Indonesia and Malaysia, orangutans the ape most dependent on trees have lost 80 percent of their forests in the past two decades.

Primates and color vision : new research, June 2000. From the Nature news service. About Primates Links for Primate Information The Primate Gallery Earliest Primates? Origin of primates deep in the Cretaceous? National Geographic News , April 18, 2002, article on a new paper. This paper makes me really angry. It is lousy science, and should never have been published. It claims that primates evolved deep in the Cretaceous. True Primates A new fossil of Carpolestes may shed light on the origin of true primates. National Geographic News, November 21, 2002.. The current research is published in Science , which does not allow universal access. Carpolestes is a plesiadapid, a member of a group that has been identified as belonging to "flying lemurs", Dermoptera, rather than true primates. The authors hang their argument on their analysis that Carpolestes and the other plesiadapids are indeed primates. The early North American primate Smilodectes gracilis (55 Ma) A web site at Duke University features prosimians. Prosimians have color vision (same press release is also available here . It's not yet clear how many times color vision evolved within primates, or how it was modified during primate evolution. I suspect that there is a lot to learn yet by studying the vision of living primates. Nocturnal primates probably can't use much color vision, so there may have been episodes of loss and/or repeated evolution of color vision.

Primates Common Name: primates Class: Mammalia Order: Primate Family: 13 extant families Genus species: 233 extant species FAST FACTS FUN FACTS BIBLIOGRAPHY Fast Facts Size: Weight: The smallest living primate is the pygmy mouse lemur, which weighs approximately 30 g (1.05 oz.). The largest is the gorilla, which weighs on average of about 175 kg (385 lbs). Description: Long arms with opposable thumbs; body hair over most of body; shortened nose (rostrum); forward-looking eyes; opposable first digits on forelimbs and hind limbs Life span: Range: Gestation: Sexual maturity: Habitat: Most dwell in tropical forests Diet: Some species eat leaves or fruit; others are insectivorous or carnivorous; certain species are omnivorous Population: Status: Some species are endangered, but all primates are listed as CITES Appendix II RETURN TO TOP Fun Facts Baboons have complex social structures with anywhere from 8 to 200 individuals per troop. They use at least 10 different vocalizations to communicate. When traveling as a group, males will lead; females and young stay safe in the middle and less dominant males bring up the rear. Young chimps learn to create tools from objects in their environment by watching others; they use sticks to extract termites to eat and crumple leaves to soak up water to drink.

154. Scientist Challenges Interpretation Of New Find, The Oldest Primate Fossil Ever From EurekaAlert, a skull and jawbones recently found in China is the oldest wellpreserved primate fossil ever discovered and the best evidence of the presence of early primates in Asia. http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-12/fm-sci122903.php

Public release date: 31-Dec-2003 Contact: Greg Borzo gborzo@fieldmusuem.org Field Museum Scientist challenges interpretation of new find, the oldest primate fossil ever discovered Find opens debate about whether man's earliest ancestors came from Asia and were diurnal or nocturnal CHICAGOA skull and jawbones recently found in China is the oldest well-preserved primate fossil ever discovered – as well as the best evidence of the presence of early primates in Asia. But the fossil raises the tantalizing possibility that remote human ancestors may have originated in Asia and stirs up debate about the nature of early primates. In the words of Robert D. Martin, Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs at Chicago's Field Museum, "It was once thought that primates originated in North America because that's where the earliest fossils were found initially; but we should be more open-minded. We still do not know the area of origin of the primate lineage that eventually led to humans, and this new find firmly brings Asia into the picture." Xijun Ni and colleagues describe the fossil as Teilhardina asiatica, a new species of a genus first recognized from Belgium, in the Jan. 1, 2004, issue of Nature. At 28 grams, T. asiatica is smaller than any modern primate, and its size and sharp tooth cusps indicate that it was an insect-eater.
