hominoid
A hominoid refers to any member of the taxonomical superfamily Hominoidea, which includes all modern apes, such as humans, chimpanzees, gorillas, bonobos, orangutans, and gibbons, as well as their ancestral and related forms. The term is used to incorporate both the lesser apes (gibbons) and the great apes (humans, chimpanzees, gorillas and orang-utans). This group is characterized by being tailless and having a more upright posture compared to other primates. They also have larger brains relative to body size and a more complex behaviour and social structure.
