Hänen (Sonja Koski, käyttäytymisbiologi) johtopäätöksensä on,

ettei ihminen sittenkään ole kovin erityinen laji, paitsi ehkä erityisen tuhovoimainen.

Wild orangutan diets are mastered via cultural learning. Modeling confirms social absence halts full dietary acquisition, indicating cumulative culture's deep evolutionary roots in great apes. #Hominidae #CulturalEvolution #PrimateStudies

A New Book on the Evolution of the Female Body Will Blow Your Mind

In Eve, author and researcher Cat Bohannon turns science's "male norm" on its head, and charts why our bodies are the way they are.

Potential hominin affinities of Graecopithecus from the Late Miocene of Europe

The split of our own clade from the Panini is undocumented in the fossil record. To fill this gap we investigated the dentognathic morphology of Graecopithecus freybergi from Pyrgos Vassilissis (Greece) and cf. Graecopithecus sp. from Azmaka (Bulgaria), using new μCT and 3D reconstructions of the two known specimens. Pyrgos Vassilissis and Azmaka are currently dated to the early Messinian at 7.175 Ma and 7.24 Ma. Mainly based on its external preservation and the previously vague dating, Graecopithecus is often referred to as nomen dubium. The examination of its previously unknown dental root and pulp canal morphology confirms the taxonomic distinction from the significantly older northern Greek hominine Ouranopithecus. Furthermore, it shows features that point to a possible phylogenetic affinity with hominins. G. freybergi uniquely shares p4 partial root fusion and a possible canine root reduction with this tribe and therefore, provides intriguing evidence of what could be the oldest known hominin.

#Taxonomy
The great #apes, or #Hominidae are a family of primates with 8 current species: 3 orangutans, 2 gorillas, chimpanzee, bonobo, sapiens.

#Taxonomy
#Homininae, also called "African hominids", is a subfamily of #Hominidae. It includes two tribes, with their extant as well as extinct species:
1) the tribe Gorillini (gorillas);
2) the tribe #Hominini (with numerous human species, chimpanzees and bonobos).
Reproduction diverged between 9 and 6 million years ago. 🧵

Hey! Next week I’am going to visit the #NaturalHistoryMuseumBritish
I am following the #EntracteScience YouTube French channel which is most about évolution, dinosaurs, hominidea and really love it!
I’m sure I won’t have the time to see all the collection, so do you have any advice?
What should I not miss? what is the most impressive?
