Also known as simian, Anthropoidea

The simians, anthropoids, or higher primates are primates of the infraorder Simiiformes () containing all animals traditionally called monkeys and apes. More precisely, they consist of the parvorders Platyrrhini (New World monkeys) and Catarrhini, the latter of which consists of the family Cercopithecidae (Old World monkeys in the stricter sense) and the superfamily Hominoidea (apesincluding humans).

AI overview

Simiiformes is the scientific classification for all monkeys and apes, divided into two main groups: New World monkeys and Old World monkeys plus apes (which includes humans). This group matters because it encompasses the primates most closely related to us and helps scientists understand primate evolution and our own place in the animal kingdom.
