Etymology: < scientific Latin Plesiadapiformes, infraorder name (E. L. Simons & I. M. Tattersall in E. L. Simons Primate Evolution (1972) 284) < Plesiadapis , genus name (see plesiadapid n.) + -iformes (see -iform comb. form).

Palaeontology.

1976 Science 11 June 1121 Cartmill notes that at least some plesiadapiforms (Plesiadapis) and tarsiiforms (Necrolemur) share with early lemuriforms..the sub-tympanic expansion of the middle ear cavity seen in modern lemuriforms.

1985 Folia Primatologica 45 179 The remaining molars, although unusual for plesiadapiforms, are less variable in both metric and nonmetric characteristics.

2000 C. Tudge Variety of Life ii. xviii. 451 But recent evidence suggests that the plesiadapiforms are no more closely related to primates than the tree-shrews are—or the colugos—so I show them here as a separate order.

B. adj.

Of or relating to the infraorder Plesiadapiformes.

1977 Systematic Zool. 26 233 Gingerich develops the idea that plesiadapiform primates..are more closely related to Tarsiiformes than to other primates.

2002 Science (Nexis) 22 Nov. 1564 The Carpolestes skeleton is important in this regard because it exhibits a mosaic of primitive plesiadapiform features and derived, euprimate-like characters.
