mandrill and drill have been traditionally united to the baboons papio sp. and to the gelada theropithecus gelada (rüppell, 1835) into the informal group called ‘cynocephalyc monkeys’ due to the skull, highly developed in length, especially in the adult males, which renders them similar to that of a dog. it should be noted that for the most part of the xix century, drill and mandrill have been referred to the genus papio whilst the real baboons were included into the cynocephalus.
