However, our interpretation of the fossil record remains limited, as no studies have explicitly linked levels of jumping performance with interspecific skeletal variation...

By analysing the skin bacterial and skin volatile profiles of humans, bonobos, chimpanzees, gorillas, lemurs and cows, we investigated whether primates that are more closely related to humans have a skin bacterial community and odour profile...

The internal nasal anatomy is believed to have undergone adaptive modifications to improve the air...

.... Colour offers a means to discover remotely the structure underlying a surface (Katz, 1935). In the case of fructivorous primates, one of the most important functions of trichromatic colour vision must be to judge the state of ripeness of fruit from the external appearance (Gautier-Hion, 1988). Similarly...
