The Adapids and the Omomyids

In the previous tutorial we looked at some organisms that could potentially have been the first primates, with some dispute. Now let's look at the first organisms that were indisputable primates, the adapids and omomyoids. These arrived around 56 million years ago, and somewhat resemble modern day lemurs and tarsiers, respectively. Where did they live? What did they eat? Let's get some details!

    Thanks to @Professor Dave for further videos in this wonderful zoological & cladistic series. The sheer detail that palaeontologists have managed to extract from the exceptionally limited fossil record over the past few decades is actually pretty astounding. Primates & their ancestors typically lived arborial lives within jungles where the soil was pretty acidic. Even if their little cadavers managed to avoid getting torn to bits by scavengers, their tiny bones would often dissolve in the acidic ground long before they could fossilise - leaving only teeth tinier than grains of rice (the crystalline mineral dentine resisting the acid).
