Abstract:

In the 1 970s and 1 980s, English zoologist Tim Clutton-Brock analyzed the evolution of social diversity in primate by comparative approach. The analyses introduced marked improvements in methodology over the earlier comparative studies. In this paper, the relationships and improvements are presented among the home ranges, sexual dimorphism of weights and teeth, testicular sizes and reproductive systems as well as sexual swellings of female primates.
