    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mammalian...

    This is a collection of lists of mammal gestation period estimated by experts in their fields. The mammals included are only viviparous (marsupials and placentals) as some mammals, which are monotremes (including platypuses and echidnas) lay their eggs. A marsupial has a short gestation period, typically shorter than placental.

    A 2014 whole-genome molecular dating analysis indicated that the gibbon lineage diverged from that of great apes (Hominidae) around 17 million years ago (16.8 ± 0.9 Mya), based on certain assumptions about the generation time and mutation rate. [1] The extinct Bunopithecus sericus was a gibbon or gibbon-like ape. [3]

As well, early hominids are substantially more primitive than estimated, which may explain why no early great apes were previously reported. [8]
