Anaptomorphinae

Mammalia - Primates - Omomyidae

Taxonomy
Anaptomorphidae was named by Cope (1883). It is not extant. Its type is Anaptomorphus.

It was synonymized subjectively with Mixodectidae by Hay (1902); it was reranked as the subfamily Anaptomorphinae by Szalay (1976), Bown and Rose (1991), Gingerich (1993), Muldoon and Gunnell (2002), Hooker (2007).

It was assigned to Quadrumana by Cope (1889); to Mesodonta by Osborn (1902); to Paleopithecini by Wortman (1903), Wortman (1904); to Primates by Simpson (1937), Simpson (1940); to Tarsiiformes by Robinson (1968); and to Omomyidae by Szalay (1976), Bown and Rose (1991), Gingerich (1993), Muldoon and Gunnell (2002), Hooker (2007).

Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
F. S. Szalay 1976"characterized by the presence of protocone-fold (sometimes referred to in the literature as Nannopithex-fold), and a type of hypocone that is an indistinct elevation on the distal slope of the protocone. ... Along with this type of hypocone construction anaptomorphines are usually also characterized by low and relatively bulbous trigonid cusps and relatively shallow talonids."
