Saadanius

Life restoration of the recently described Saadanius hijazensis (Zalmout et al., 2010) from the Oligocene of Saudi Arabia. It is only known from an incompletely preserved cranium that indicates it is closely related to the common ancestor of the Old World monkeys and apes.

The remainder of this body is drawn based on a combination of its body size (~15 - 25 kg) and a generalized above branch locomotion with a subequal intermembral index typical for primitive primates.
