对于许多动物分类群来说，生殖发育在多大程度上可以解释物种社会系统的形式很少被正式研究。灵长类社会系统的定量系统发育分析表明，社会组织可能是强烈保守的一些谱系，即使在面对相当大的生态变异。这一结果对于理解动物社会的进化和重建早期人类社会组织的努力具有重要意义。
For many animal taxa, the extent to which phylogeny can account for the form of species' social systems has seldom been investigated formally. A quantitative phylogenetic analysis of social systems in the order Primates reveals that social organization may be strongly conserved in some lineages, even in the face of considerable ecological variability. This result has important implications for efforts to understand the evolution of animal societies and for attempts to reconstruct the social organization of early humans.
