Sexual dimorphism in the cranium of infant and juvenile organutans
1University of Pittsburgh, Titusville, Pa.
Abstract:
The present study examines sexual dimorphism in the cranium of the immature orangutan. A series of 37 craniometric dimensions were measured on 56 immature crania. The total sample was divided into two subsamples: infants and juveniles. Univariate statistics and an analysis of variance were prepared for each subsample. Results indicate that the males and females in both subsamples are significantly different (p less than or equal to 0.05) for two measures of skull length. Eight additional dimensions from the infant category also appear to differ significantly (p less than or equal to 0.05) between the sexes.
