Popis:	A new genus of small-bodied ape from Kalodirr, a Miocene site in northern Kenya, is described. It is compared with other recognized genera of small apes from the Miocene of East Africa and found to show closer similarities with Dendropithecus than with either Limnopithecus or Micropithecus . Among the recognized genera of larger Miocene hominoids it shares most features with Rangwapithecus but is distinguished by details of its dental morphology.
