Cercopithecidae is a family of primates within the order Primates, class Mammalia, and phylum Chordata. The taxon, whose name was established by Gray in 1821, is classified under the superfamily Cercopithecoidea. Members of this family are commonly known as Old World monkeys. The family name is governed by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature and holds an accepted status in taxonomic records.
The distribution of Cercopithecidae includes vast regions of Africa and Asia, as well as small parts of Europe. Specimens have been recorded in countries such as Malawi, South Africa, Burma, Kenya, and the United States. Physical records and media associated with the family are held by institutions including UCMP, AMNH, CLO, UTEP, and MVZ.

Cercopithécidés Cercopithecidae Babouin anubis (Papio anubis) Super-famille CercopithecoideaGray, 1821 Famille CercopithecidaeGray, 1821 Les cercopithécidés (Cercopithecidae) constituent une famille de primates catarhiniens à queue non-préhensile de l'Ancien Monde. Cette famille comprend notamment les cercopithèques, les cynocéphales et les macaques. Le magot Macaca sylvanus est le seul macaque dépourvu de queue, mais aussi le seul primate, à part Homo sapiens, présent sur le continent européen. Son aire de répartition comprend l'Afrique du Nord et Gibraltar. On a découvert qu'une espèce de macaques était porteuse du facteur rhésus, ce qui lui a valu son nom de « macaque rhésus ». Ainsi, le macaque rhésus est devenu un animal de laboratoire fréquemment utilisé de par la similitude entre son patrimoine génétique et celui de l'Homme. Les cercopithecidae sont apparus au Miocène ancien (il y a environ 26 Ma) et constituent actuellement le groupe des catarrhiniens le plus diversifié taxonomiquement. Ils se distinguent des hominoïdés notamment par leurs molaires très spécialisées, appelées bilophodontes.
