The Middle Siwalik sediments exposed at Haritalyangar (31°32'N, 76°38'E), India are best known for the diversity of fossil primates that no longer inhabit the Sub-Himalaya, including the late surviving large hominoids Sivapithecus and Indopithecus as well as primitive lemuriform primate, such as Indraloris and Sivaladapis.

Abstract


The Middle Siwalik sediments exposed at Haritalyangar (31°32'N, 76°38'E), India are best known for the diversity of fossil primates that no longer inhabit the Sub-Himalaya, including the late surviving large hominoids Sivapithecus and Indopithecus as well as primitive lemuriform primate, such as Indraloris and Sivaladapis.
