Abstract:
New platyrrhine fossils have been recovered from early Miocene deposits near the Pinturas River in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. Soriacebus ameghinorum is a saki-sized monkey with a deep V-shaped mandible, large procumbent incisors and small marmoset-like cheek teeth. Several other primate taxa are represented by dental, cranial, and post-cranial remains from the same deposits. These fossils document the presence of a phyletically and adaptively diverse fauna of primates in southernmost Argentina during the early Miocene.
