Here I present results of the study of relative fibular strength including cercopithecine pri-mates (Macaca fascicularis and Papio Anubis) and measurements of the more distal aspects (20% of bone mechanical length) of both the tibia and fibula. Papio anubis and M. fascicularis were selected because they are phylogenetically distant from hominoids but closely related to each other and vary in their degree of arboreal travel.

Abstract
Here I present results of the study of relative fibular strength including cercopithecine pri-mates (Macaca fascicularis and Papio Anubis) and measurements of the more distal aspects (20% of bone mechanical length) of both the tibia and fibula. Papio anubis and M. fascicularis were selected because they are phylogenetically distant from hominoids but closely related to each other and vary in their degree of arboreal travel.File in questo prodotto:
