one toward living tarsiers large-eyed night-dwelling small primates and anthropoids the monkeys apes and humans
and its basal evolutionary position this discover supports the idea that the common ancestor of both tarsiers
These two branches anthropoids and tarsiers have been thought to be linked evolutionarily for some time and now scientists are starting to understand the age of that split.
Tarsiers tend to have elongated heel bones which help give them leverage for their giant leaps.
But after the exhaustive analysis it became clear that Archicebus was linked also closely to tarsiers.
Then too beady might be a relative term here as some small primates like tarsiers
