| The C 1 calibration was based on the estimated ages of the three earliest putative cercopithecoid and hominoid fossils. |
| Craniodental fossils currently indicate the possible presence of at least three large-bodied cercopithecoid primate genera at Cooper's D: Gorgopithecus, Papio, and Theropithecus. |
| The gelada is the only cercopithecoid examined that retains the potential for exonization, while all Great Apes retain this potential. |
| Although hominins are relatively rare in the assemblage, remains of cercopithecoid primates are much more common. |
| This value corresponds to the upper limit of the split between hominoid and cercopithecoid primates. |
| Primers were designed from conserved regions of the cercopithecoid and human sequences in the public databases. |
