An assessment of the utility of nerve- and vessel-related cranial characters for reconstructing primate phylogeny
Recent analyses have suggested that standard craniodental characters may be misleading regarding primate phylogenetic relationships. This has important implications for the study of human evolution because such characters dominate the datasets used to reconstruct the phylogenetic history of fossil p...
