      Citation Excerpt :

      Recently discovered postcranial elements (including the first hand bones) of Hadropithecus corroborate this view. Paleontological expeditions to the north and northwest of Madagascar have discovered the first virtually complete hands and feet of Archaeolemur (Simons et al., 1990; Burney et al., 1997; see also Godfrey et al., 1997b, for a map of Archaeolemur localities in Madagascar). Based on their large size and overall morphology, these fossils have been attributed to Archaeolemur cf. edwardsi (Godfrey and Jungers, 2002).
