Human Evolution.
Strepsirhines are the most primitive types of living primates. The last common ancestors of strepsirhines and other mammals—creatures similar to tree shrews andclassified as Plesiadapiformes—evolved at least 65 million years ago. The earliest primates evolved by about 55 million years ago, and fossil species similar to lemursevolved during the Eocene Epoch (about 55 million to 38 million years ago). Strepsirhines share all of the basic characteristics of primates, although their brains are notpa...

The earliest primates evolved by about 55 million years ago, and fossil species similar to lemursevolved during the Eocene Epoch (about 55 million to 38 million years ago). Strepsirhines share all of the basic characteristics of primates, although their brains are notparticularly large or complex and they have a more elaborate and sensitive olfactory system (sense of smell) than do other primates.

Primate - biology.
The primate order includes a handful of species that live entirely on meat (carnivores) and also a few that are strict vegetarians (herbivores), but it is composed chieflyof animals that have varied diets (omnivores). The carnivorous primates are the four species of tarsiers, which live in Southeast Asia. Using their long back legs, thesepocket-sized nocturnal hunters leap on their prey, pinning it down with their hands and then killing it with their needle-sharp teeth. Tarsiers primarily eat in...

primates (faune & Flore).
fondés sur les caractéristiques anatomique du museau : celui des strepsirhiniens et celui des haplorhiniens. Les primates vivent pour la plupart dans les forêts tropicales etsubtropicales d’Amérique, d’Afrique et d’Asie. Il en existe 300 espèces (y compris l’espèce humaine). Nota bene : les termes de prosimiens (« avant les singes ») et d’anthropoïdes (« qui a une forme humaine »), qui correspondent respectivement, peu ou prou, aux strepsirrhiniens et haplorrhiniens, sont tombés en désuétude et...
