It is proposed that early in phylogeny a large proportion of amino acid substitutions were selectively neutral, but that bursts of adaptive substitutions during major radiations of life so increased selective constraints that most mutations in modern proteins are detrimental. Recent findings on D N
Nacholapithecus kerioi is a large-sized hominoid from the Aka Aiteputh Formation (15 Ma) in Nachola, northern Kenya. 1 While eight large-sized hominoid species dating to the late Early to early Middle Miocene (17-14 Ma) are known in Afro-Arabia and western Eurasia, 2-6 the facial and postcranial ana
