There are over 200 different species of primates. There are three categories, Prosimians, Apes and monkeys. Prosimians are in the family Prosimii and live in Africa and Asia. They include lemurs, lorises, galagos and (possibly) tarsiers. Apes are the members of the Hominoidea Family. They are split in to two groups: * the family Hylobatidae consists of 4 genera and 13 species of gibbons, known as the "lesser apes" * the family Hominidae consisting of orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans, known as the "great apes". Monkeys are a much more broad. There are about 264 species of monkeys. These are divided into Old World Monkeys (from Africa & Asia), and New World Monkeys (from South America). Some New World monkeys are Capuchins, Spiders, Squirrels, Marmosets, and Tamarins. Some Old World monkeys include Macaques, colobus, patas, grivets, mandrills, and vervets.
