Biology:Ankarapithecus
From HandWiki
Ankarapithecus (from Ankara and Ancient Greek πίθηκος (píthēkos), meaning "ape, monkey") is a genus of extinct ape. It was probably frugivorous, and would have weighed about 27 kilograms (60 lb). Its remains were found close to Ankara in central Turkey beginning in the 1950s.[1] It lived during the Late Miocene[2] and was similar to Sivapithecus. The genus has one species, Ankarapithecus meteai, known as the Ankara monkey.
