Dionysopithecinae is a subfamily of extinct primates known from Miocene fossil deposits in China, Pakistan, and Thailand.^[1]^[2]^[3] The species attributed to this group include ''Dionysopithecus shuangouensis'', ''Dionysopithecus orientalis'', and ''Platodontopithecus jianghuaiensis''. Dionysopithecines represent the earliest known occurrence of pliopithecoids in the fossil record.

History of Discovery

Dionysopithecus shuangouensis - Li (1978) Platodontopithecus jianghuaiesis - Gu and Lin (1983) Dionysopithecus orientalis - Suteethorn et al. (1990), originally classified as Dendropithecus orientalis, Thailand Dionysopithecus sp. - Bernor et al. (1988), Pakistan
