Abstract

New Models and Insights into Primate Evolutionary Morphology

Highlights

  • Tying together the study of feeding behavior and body size, A

  • Evolutionary morphology is concerned with the ways in which anatomical structures respond to environmental pressures, both within the lifetime of an individual and over geological time

  • Evolutionary morphology as a discipline is focused on understanding the factors influential in primate evolution and evolutionary innovations

Summary

Introduction

Tying together the study of feeding behavior and body size, A. These considerations are reflected in this special issue with authors’ contributions drawn from diverse areas including comparative and functional anatomy, evolutionary biology, neurobiology, biomechanics, and growth and development. Several papers in this special issue focus on the anatomical study of adaptation by focusing on the functional morphology of feeding. Four papers in this special issue focus on the issues of growth and development in primate evolutionary morphology.
