Description
Griphopithecus has been consistently grouped with stem hominoids. The material therefore indicates the range of hominoid locomotor anatomy in mid-Miocene Europe, rather than a specifically crown hominoid anatomy.
Species
- †Griphopithecus alpani Tekkaya, 1974[2]
- †Griphopithecus suessi Abel, 1902[3]
