  • Areas 1- Ern Africa
    Kroeber Anthropological Society Papers, Nos. 71-72, 1990 Diet, Species Diversity and Distribution of African Fossil Baboons Brenda R. Benefit and Monte L. McCrossin Based on measurements ofmolarfeatures shown to befunctionally correlated with the proportions of fruits and leaves in the diets ofextant monkeys, Plio-Pleistocenepapionin baboonsfrom southern Africa are shown to have included more herbaceous resources in their diets and to have exploited more open country habitats than did the highlyfrugivorousforest dwelling eastern African species. The diets ofall species offossil Theropithecus are reconstructed to have included morefruits than the diets ofextant Theropithecus gelada. Theropithecus brumpti, T. quadratirostris and T. darti have greater capacitiesfor shearing, thinner enamel and less emphases on the transverse component ofmastication than T. oswaldi, and are therefore interpreted to have consumed leaves rather than grass. Since these species are more ancient than the grass-eating, more open country dwelling T. oswaldi, the origin ofthe genus Thero- pithecus is attributed tofolivorous adaptations by largepapionins inforest environments rather than to savannah adapted grass-eaters. Reconstructions ofdiet and habitat are used to explain differences in the relative abundance and diversity offossil baboons in eastern andsouthern Africa. INTRODUCTION abundance between eastern and southern Africa is observed for members of the Papionina (Papio, Interpretations of the dietary habits of fossil Cercocebus, Parapapio, Gorgopithecus, and Old World monkeys have been based largely on Dinopithecus).

  • Development, Function and Evolution of Teeth
    Development, Function and Evolution of Teeth Over the past 20 years there has been an explosion of information generated by scienti®c research. One of the bene®ciaries of this has been the study of morphology, where new techniques and analyses have led to insights into a wide range of topics. Advances in genetics, histology, microstructure, biomechanics and morphometrics have allowed researchers to view teeth from new perspectives. However, up to now there has been little communication between researchers in the different ®elds of dental research. This book brings together for the ®rst time overviews of a wide range of dental topics, linking genes, molecules and developmental mechanisms within an evolutionary framework. Written by leading experts in the ®eld, this book will stimulate co-operative research in ®elds as diverse as palaeontology, molecular biology, developmental biology and functional morphology.

CREATING A CHRONOCLINE OF THE DIET OF THEROPITHECUS FROM LOW- MAGNIFICATION STEREOMICROSCOPY: HOW HAS THE DIET OF THEROPITHECUS CHANGED OVER TIME? by Meri Kathryn Hatchett Under the Direction of Dr. Frank L. Williams ABSTRACT The primate genus Theropithecus is represented at various Plio-Pleistocene sites including the Pliocene site of Makapansgat (2.9 mya), the early Pleistocene cave of Swartkrans (1.8 mya), the late Pleistocene deposits from Elandsfontein (700,000 ka) and by extant gelada baboons from Ethiopia. To examine how diet has changed over time in this genus, dental microwear features of Theropithecus darti (n=2), Theropithecus danieli (n=8), Theropithecus gelada (n=2) Theropithecus oswaldi (n=1) Parapapio whitei (n=14), Papio robinsoni (n=16) and Papio ursinus (n=13) were examined under low-magnification (35x) using light refractive technology.

Degree awarded June 2019 ii © 2019 Monya Anderson iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Monya Anderson Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology June 2019 Title: Functional Morphology, Variation, and Niche Separation in the Large-Bodied Fossil Colobines Colobines are ecological referents that can be used to assess and reconstruct paleoenvironmental conditions. Colobine taxa discussed here include Paracolobus mutiwa, P. Cercopithecoides williamsi, C. kimeui, and Rhinocolobus turkanensis. All of these taxa except for R. turkanensis display postcranial adaptations consistent with terrestrial locomotion in contrast to their exclusively arboreal African counterparts. At sites like these of the Upper Burgi Member of Koobi Fora, these four large colobines, up to four species of hominins, and three large-bodied cercopithecine taxa are known. This level of sympatry in primate communities is unmatched in modern habitats emphasizing the importance of niche separation for understanding diversity in the fossil record.
