Hominidae

Hominidae is the primate family of great apes: orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, bonobos, and humans. Its living members are large-bodied, tailless primates with complex social lives.

Hominoidea: Hominoidea is the primate superfamily containing gibbons and great apes. Hominidae is the great-ape branch within this broader ape group.
Hominoid evolution: Hominoid evolution is the evolutionary history of apes, including gibbons and great apes. It traces the ancestry and branching history of the family.
Orangutan: Orangutans are Asian great apes in the genus Pongo, native to Borneo and Sumatra. They are the family’s living representatives in Asia.
Proconsul: Proconsul is an extinct early Miocene primate genus known from fossils in East Africa. Its fossils preserve early ape traits near the origins of the hominoid radiation.
Hylobatidae: Hylobatidae is the primate family containing gibbons and siamangs, commonly called lesser apes. Gibbons are apes but belong outside the great-ape family.
Homininae: Homininae is the subfamily containing African great apes and humans. It groups gorillas, chimpanzees, bonobos, and humans within Hominidae.
Hominid phylogeny: Hominid phylogeny is the inferred pattern of evolutionary relationships among great apes and their relatives. It represents how the family’s living and extinct lineages are related.
Gorilla: Gorillas are African great apes in the genus Gorilla, living in equatorial forests. They exemplify the largest-bodied living members of Hominidae.
Sivapithecus: Sivapithecus is an extinct Miocene ape genus known chiefly from fossils in South Asia. Its facial anatomy links it closely to the orangutan lineage.
Cercopithecidae: Cercopithecidae is the primate family containing Old World monkeys such as baboons and macaques. Old World monkeys are close primate relatives but are not apes.
