Hominidae Gray 1825 View in CoL , Ann. Philos., n. s., 10: 344.

Synonyms: Pongidae Elliot 1913 .

Genera: 4 genera with 7 species:

Genus Gorilla I. Geoffroy 1852 (2 species with 4 subspecies)

Genus Homo Linnaeus 1758 (1 species)

Genus Pan Oken 1816 (2 species with 4 subspecies)

Genus Pongo Lacépède 1799 (2 species with 3 subspecies)

Discussion: For combining all genera in one family, see Groves (1989). The genera are placed in two subfamilies by Groves (2001 c): Ponginae ( Pongo alone), and Homininae ( Gorilla , Homo , Pan ). McKenna and Bell (1997) included Hylobatidae in addition, as a subfamily, and within the Homininae recognized two living tribes, Pongini and Hominini; Goodman et al. (1998) recognized gibbons only as a tribe (Hylobatini), with the other three genera as a separate tribe (Hominini), divided into subtribes Pongina and Hominina ; they included Pan in Homo , and Watson et al. (2001) included both Pan and Gorilla in Homo .
