NannopithexNannopithex is a genus of European omomyid primate from the Eocene.DescriptionNannopithex lacks a second premolar, much like other omomyids. They have reduced lower canines and second incisors, alongside enlarged first incisors. The rather underived molars of Nannopithex indicate it is a very basal member of Microchoerinae.ClassificationNannopithex is closely related to Vectipithex, and 2 species formerly assigned to Nannopithex '' have been moved to Vectipithex. Much like other Microchoerines, it is assumed Nannopithex resulted from a radiation event during the early Eocene.
