The Primate Order is a Mammalian order consisting of 5 grades split into prosimians (grade 1 and 2) and anthropoids (grade 3, 4 and 5) (each with subdivisions), grade 1 are all extinct and resemble todays treeshrews (which are not primates), grade 2 are prosimians such as lemurs, grade 3 are the tarsiers which have characteristics of both prosimians and anthropoids but DNA shows they are anthropoids. Grade 4 are the monkeys which are divided into New and Old world (and each again have subdivisions). Grade 5 are the apes (lesser and great)
