The Functional and Evolutionary Biology of Primates
Functional and Evolutionary Biology of Primates
Primate Craniofacial Function and Biology
An integrative volume with broad coverage of current research on primate craniofacial biology and function. Topics include the mammalian perspective on primate craniofacial form and function, allometric and comparative morphological studies of primate heads, and in vivo research on primate mastication

Electromyography of brachial muscles in Pan gorilla and hominoid evolution
Electromyographic studies on brachial muscles in a gorilla indicate that its elbow joint may be especially adapted for knuckle‐walking and suspensory behavior. A close‐packed positioning mechanism that minimizes muscular effort during full extension of the elbow joint is indicated by remarkably low levels of EMG in the brachial muscles, particularly during knuckle‐walking and suspensory behavior on a trapeze. Extension of the elbow joint is facil…
Darwin's Apes, Dental Apes, and the Descent of Man: Normal Science in Evolutionary Anthropology
This paper sketches successive refinements, optional renderings, and disclaimers of the ape model of hominid evolution from its initial statement by Darwin, Huxley, and Haeckel until 1973. I suggest that of the four principal ape models that have been advanced-brachiating troglodytian; brachiating, bipedal hylobatian; knuckle-walking, brachiating troglodytian; and pristine ground ape-the hylobatian model of Morton is the most convincing. Thus, fu…

Electromyography of knuckle‐walking: Results of four experiments on the forearm of Pan gorilla
Preliminary results of electromyographic (EMG) studies on the forearm of a gorilla provisionally support the hypothesis that special closepacked positioning mechanisms may characterize the wrist and metacarpophalangeal joints II–V in extant knuckle‐walkers (chimpanzees and gorillas). We recommend that once the bony features, related to these close‐packed positions are clearly identified, they may be employed strategically to discern evidence of a…
