Premolar Ecomorphology in Anthropoid Primates: A Machine Learning Approach
Key Findings Anthropoid premolar anatomy and topography varies with diet: folivores and highly insectivorous species tend to have sharp premolars with tall cusps, while hard-object feeders tend to ha...

Incisor Geometry, Relief, and Diet in Anthropoid Primates With Implications for Antillothrix
Principal component analysis (PCA) showing variation in incisor shape across dietary groups. Diet is indicated by color, and genus is indicated by shape. (A) PCA of I1 height, width, and breadth. (B)...
