  • Title: Osteometric shape relationships in the wrist joint of some anthropoids.
    Author: Corruccini RS, Ciochon RL, McHenry HM.
    Journal: Folia Primatol (Basel); 1975; 24(4):250-74. PubMed ID: 811511.
    Abstract:
    Multivariate morphometric analyses of the wrist morphology of monkeys, apes and humans indicated that there is a fundamental difference between cercopithecoids and hominoids which can be related to functional and behavioral differences. The wrists of the Miocene fossil hominoids (Dryopithecus africanus and Pliopithecus vindobonensis) are almost completely monkey-like in their structure.
