## Abstract Variation between the sexes during ontogeny is frequently overlooked in discussions of the phylogenetic patterns of adult sexual dimorphism. Different growth trajectories can produce identical degrees and direction of adult dimorphism and the possibility exists that similarities in adul

## Abstract We present body mass (N = 419) and crownβrump length (CRL, N = 210) measurements from 38 male and 49 female mandrills born into a semifreeβranging colony in order to describe growth from birth to adulthood, and to investigate maternal influences upon growth. Adult male mandrills are 3.4
Sexual dimorphism in the hyoid bone was investigated and the usefulness of the hyoid bone as an additional sex indicator was assessed. Fifty-nine hyoid bones from human cadavers of known sex and age were examined and 13 measurements were taken directly from the X-ray film. A multivariate approach, b
