Primates

The two suborders of primates that are recognized today are Strepsirrhini (lemurs and lorises) and Haplorrhini (tarsiers, monkeys, apes, and humans). The taxonomy of primates is an issue that is not resolved and has undergone many revisions over the years. Our Primates category attempts to deal with questions about primate species and subspecies described prior to and since the latest revisions.
