cercopithecines
Definition
- Cercopithecines are primates that make up one of the two major groups of Old World monkeys. All Old World monkeys are members of a single primate family, Cercopithecidae, and so are referred to collectively as “cercopithecids.” The family consists of two distinct subfamilies, Colobinae (“colobines”) and Cercopithecinae (“cercopithecines”), which separated about 14 million years ago.
