Size

- The result of this discussion was Merge. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:10, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
- Merge - Either Ugandapithecus major is the junior synonym of Proconsul major, or Ugandapithecus major is the new name for Proconsul major. Either way, they are the same species, and should only have one article. - [Proposed by NessieVL on 12 February 2019]
- Merge both into Proconsul with a discussion of the various taxonomic suggestions that have been made. --Kevmin § 17:31, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
