Oreopithecus  

Définition

  • One of the most controversial fossil primates known, Oreopithecus bambolii has generated substantial debate since its original discovery in the 1870s. Although only distantly related to humans, this Miocene hominoid shows several features that later evolved in parallel in the earliest human ancestors, including potential bipedalism and hand grasping ability.
