Catarrhini
Catarrhini (cohort Unguiculata, order Primates) A suborder (or infra-order) of primates that includes Old World monkeys, apes, and humans. Many authorities place the Catarrhini with the
Platyrrhini and
Tarsioidea in a single suborder,
Haplorrhini. The earliest-confirmed catarrhines are known from the
Oligocene of Egypt, though possible representatives are known from the Eocene of Burma.
