Contribution à l’étude de la mobilité pollicale des primates actuels. Plaidoyer en faveur de l’importance du rôle de leur pouce by J Norbert Kuhlmann

“…These amplitudes were also measured on 26 animals asleep and many other animals were observed in relative freedom or in large aviaries. 419 skeletons of primates’ hands were measured and the measures converted in percentage with regard to the length of the 3rd metacarpal, in order to compare species in spite of their difference of size (collection of the Museum of Natural History in Paris). The morphological and functional differences of the trapeziometacarpal joint and the modes of pollicidigital prehension, help arranging primates in three categories.Among prosimians, the joint is concave/convex. …”
