Development and Eruption of the Mandibular Cheek Teeth in Cebus albifron s

John G. Fleagle, Mitchell B. Schaffler

Abstract

The development and eruption of the mandibular cheek teeth of Cebus albifrons is described from a longitudinal series of whole body radiographs. Males are generally ahead of females in both development and eruption times. The dental development and eruption in C. albifrons is intermediate between the smaller New World primates and the larger catarrhines.
