The systematics and classi fication of the strepsirhine and tarsioid primates are contentious subjects. In compiling this volume, we have adopted a taxonomy that best fits our understanding of the evolution of these groups, and the spirit and intention inherent in systematic theory. In this chapter, we clarify and explain our choices regarding the title of this book and higher level taxonomic assignments.
