Sequence Learning and Chunk Stability in Guinea Baboons (Papio papio) by Laure Tosatto, Joël Fagot, Arnaud Rey

“…Using an operant conditioning device, we previously studied the precise mechanisms by which chunks are formed and reorganized during sequence learning. Eighteen Guinea baboons (Papio papio) repeatedly produced the same fixed sequence of nine movements during 1,000 trials by pointing to a moving target on a touch screen. …”

Les primates non-humains pliocènes et plio-pléistocènes d’Afrique du Sud by Dominique Gommery, Laura Bento Da Costa

“…During the same geological period, the fauna from South Africa differs from the East African one by the different diversity of Cercopithecoidea by which colobines and theropithecines are poorly represented but also by a greater number of species of Parapapio, a form close to baboons. Also in South Africa, we discovered the oldest baboon remains belonging to the genus Papio similar to the extant South African species, the chacma. …”
