anthropoid ape
has glosseng: Anthropoid apes or manlike apes, the name given to the family of the Simiidae, because, of all the ape-world, they most closely resemble man. This family includes four kinds, the gibbons of S. E. Asia, the orangutans of Borneo and Sumatra, the gorillas of W. Equatorial Africa, and the chimpanzees of W. and Central Equatorial Africa. Each of these apes resembles man most in some one physical characteristic: the gibbons in the formation of the teeth, the orangs in the brain-structure, the gorillas in size, and the chimpanzees in the sigmoid flexure of the spine. In general structure they all closely resemble human beings, as in the absence of tails; in their semi-erect position (resting on finger-tips or knuckles); in the shape of vertebral column, sternum and pelvis; in the adaptation of the arms for turning the palm uppermost at will; in the possession of a long vermiform appendix to the short caecum of the intestine; in the size of the cerebral hemispheres and the complexity of their convolutions.

has glossjpn: 類人猿(るいじんえん、ape)は、ヒトに似た形態を持つ大型と中型の霊長類を指す通称名。ヒトの類縁であり、高度な知能を有し、社会的生活を営んでいる。類人猿は生物学的な分類名称ではないが、便利なので霊長類学などで使われている。一般的には、人類以外のヒト上科に属する種を指すが、分岐分類学を受け入れている生物学者が類人猿(エイプ)と言った場合、ヒトを含める場合がある。ヒトを含める場合、類人猿はヒト上科(ホミノイド)に相当する。
