White-fronted Capuchin subspecies

I would recommend that pages are made for the White-fronted Capuchin subspecies. There is seemingly enough information known about each individual. Cheers, Jack (talk) 01:15, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article request page update

I've incorporate the subpages and added some of the great information from User:Ucucha/List of mammals. Jack (talk) 15:46, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ugandapithecus major

Ugandapithecus major is a recent fossil discovery found July 18th, 2011 in the remote northeastern Karamoja region of Uganda. Found by a team of Ugandan and French paleontologists they described it as a 20-million-year-old ape skull, saying it could shed light on the region's evolutionary history. Preliminary studies of the fossil showed it was a tree-climbing herbivore, roughly 10 years old when it died and had a head the size of a chimpanzee, but a brain the size of a baboon. The remains would be taken to Paris to be x-rayed and documented before being returned to Uganda according to Brigitte Senut, a professor at the Musee National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, France.

I believe this is a rename of Proconsul major, this is a paper arguing the merits of splitting the genus: Pickford, M.; Senut, B.; Gommery, D.; Musiime, E. (2009). "Distinctiveness of Ugandapithecus from Proconsul" (pdf). Estudios Geológicos. 65 (2): 183. doi:10.3989/egeol.39926.071.. Jack (talk) 11:25, 20 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
