摘要

本文描述了在肯尼亚北部Nachola发现的中中新世早期(~15 Ma)原猿标本。这是一条保留P4-M3的右上颌骨，属于中新世猴目miooticus属的一个新种。在此之前，人们从东非早中新世就知道了miooticus。因此，Nachola标本是中中新世首次发现的这一属。在Nachola动物群中发现了一种新的lorisid物种，这表明该地区的古环境是森林环境，与之前已知的证据一致，包括大量的大型类人猿化石(Nacholapithecus kerioi)，食草动物群中的食草动物占主导地位，以及大量石化木材的存在。

A new species of Mioeuoticus (Lorisiformes, Primates) from the early Middle Miocene of Kenya

We here describe a prosimian specimen discovered from the early Middle Miocene (~15 Ma) of Nachola, northern Kenya. It is a right maxilla that preserves P4–M3, and is assigned to a new species of the Miocene lorisid genus Mioeuoticus. Previously, Mioeuoticus was known from the Early Miocene of East Africa. The Nachola specimen is therefore the first discovery of this genus from the Middle Miocene. The presence of a new lorisid species in the Nachola fauna indicates a forested paleoenvironment for this locality, consistent with previously known evidence including the abundance of large-bodied hominoid fossils (Nacholapithecus kerioi), the dominance of browsers among the herbivore fauna, and the presence of plenty of petrified wood.

期刊介绍： Anthropological Science (AS) publishes research papers, review articles, brief communications, and material reports in physical anthropology and related disciplines. The scope of AS encompasses all aspects of human and primate evolution and variation. We welcome research papers in molecular and morphological variation and evolution, genetics and population biology, growth and development, biomechanics, anatomy and physiology, ecology and behavioral biology, osteoarcheology and prehistory, and other disciplines relating to the understanding of human evolution and the biology of the human condition.
