This paper presents the first three‐dimensional reconstruction of the cranium of the European Miocene ape, Dryopithecus. The reconstruction is based on remains collected from Can Llobateres, Spain (CLI 18000; Dryopithecus laietanus ), D. fontani (St. Gaudens), and D. brancoi (Kordos and Begun [1997] Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. 103: 277–294). Previously unrecognized facial fragments from CLI 18000 were included in the reconstruction. The result shows that Dryopithecus had a relatively short face, with a rather short and well‐rounded neurocranium. From the lateral perspective, the face is concave at midface, and on the cranium the temporal lines run parallel to each other without forming a sagittal crest.
