Omomyinae is a subfamily of the extinct primate family Omomyidae. The group is most commonly found in North America.[1] Members of this group are suggested to have primarily been faunivores,[2] but also including herbivorous (folivorous and frugivorous) taxa.[2] [3] Their body masses are estimated to have reached up to 3 kilograms (6.6 lb) in the largest genera, considerably larger than the largest anaptomorphine omomyids.[2] The postcranial morphology of the omomyines Ourayia and Chipetaia is similar to that of primitive omomyids.[3]

[edit ]Omomyinae as a monophyletic clade has been questioned in the past,[4] but the grouping is still widely used.
